The star of ” Stranger Things “, Joe Keery, plays the role of Stephen Malkmus in the next film by Alex Ross Perry on a big name of alternative rock, pavement.
The star of Stranger Things, Joe Keery, made hilarious and melodramatic beginnings in the role of Stephen Malkmus, big name of independent rock in the new trailer for Alex Ross Perry's film on Pavement, Life range: a pavement story.
The film is a real mixture: rock documentary, biopic, musical, exhibition, artistic performance, all treated with the irreverence that can be expected from a pavement film. This first trailer is a perfect deformation of the ultra-worked and serious biopic trailers, all to the sound of the song ” Here »De Pavement. Of course, the song was slowed down and embellished with a section of tearful strings, to underline the depth of this new cinematographic work.
The teaser also presents Keery, in the role of Malkmus, delivering large truths such as: ” It's music. If it's fun, it's fun, if it's work, it's work, and it's not funny »; or even ” Progress is predictable and predictability implies science. I don't want to have anything to do with science ». (This last sentence was written by Malkmus when Pavement released his misunderstood masterpiece Wowee Zowee).
