Sundance Review: The Great Buck Howard
FirstShowing.net — ... ) who has a long running career that's finally beginning to fade and he's the only one who can't see it happening.

A law school dropout named Troy Gable (Colin Hanks) randomly decides to start working as Buck's road manager and thus begins a journey of self-discovery by watching Buck attempt to stage a career-making comeback and eventually fade into nothing. ...

Of course the girls have some lessons in humility to impart upon Faris' empty mind, as she attempts to woo a normal guy (Colin Hanks... someone please explain why he keeps getting jobs, besides the fact that he's Rita Wilson's son).

This could been the female answer to ...

Malkovich is 'The Great Buck Howard'
Get The Big Picture — After about 20 seconds of this trailer, I was sold. Really, as soon as I saw John Malkovich in that wig and read that he was playing a washed-up illusionist, I honestly didn't need to see or hear anything else. He's Malkatraz, for crying out loud! However, I watched the other 45 seconds of the trailer for The Great Buck Howard, which co-stars Colin Hanks, Emily Blunt, Steve Zahn, and Tom Hanks, and that's ...

Movie Review - 'The Great Buck Howard'
Get The Big Picture — ... Troy Gabel (Colin Hanks) is a law school dropout, and without much direction in his life, takes a job as a road manager for Buck Howard, a performer he's never heard of. Howard is, as you might expect, an unusual cat. He's well-tailored but cheap, typically mild-mannered but likely to explode at any moment for any reason, and has a sexuality that's hard to gauge. ...
