Jesse Eisenberg co-stars opposite Jesse Eisenberg in Richard Ayoade’s The Double, playing right now at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival. We’re sorry to report that CraveOnline could only snag an interview with one Jesse Eisenberg, but he’s brought his director with him to explain this unusual psychological fantasy/sci-fi comedy-drama to all you folks at home who couldn’t be here in Park City with us.
Sundance 2014 Review: Fred Topel says The Double is “really funny, but it’s just weird.”
Jesse Eisenberg talks about working with Jesse Eisenberg and the technical tricks necessary to make that collaboration possible. Richard Ayoade talks about his adaptation of Fyodor Dostoevsky’s novel and all the penis jokes that were cut out of the movie. And when you do finally get to see The Double for yourself – Ayoade says this spring is very likely – how literally should you take this unusual, psychological metaphor?
Keep coming back to CraveOnline for more coverage of the 2014 Sundance Film Festival all this week!
