Can't Wait: Me and Orson Welles

I'm really not a fan of Zac Efron, the mere fact that I so loathed High School Musical is enough for me to not watch any Efron movie, but then again, come to think of it, he was kinda good in Hairspray, despite the Fred Willard hairdo. But what got me excited is that my favorite director: Richard Linklater helmed this movie. And it has been a long time since I seen his greatness. He was so so in "Fast Food Nation" and was great in "A Scanner Darkly" and was perfect in "Before Sunset". I hope he doesn't suck in this one.
