Red Band Trailer For Asia Argento's The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things PLUS Some Free Swag!

(Posted In Drama Film News Trailer Alert USA and Canada )

heartisdeceitful.gifYep, JT Leroy's been exposed as a fraud, a fictional creation, and to everyone all hot and bothered by that I say this: Look At The Title of The Book, People! What more do you want, really? A signed confession? You were told you were being duped while it was happening and yet you still bit, which to me is a simply beautiful bit of irony.

But enough of that.

A new red band trailer for Asia Argento's film of the book that duped many people has turned up at, of all places, Moviefone. This is apparently the first time Moviefone has hosted a red bander and while I've not seen the film myself the trailer looks mighty fine. The link to check it out is below.

But wait! Before you go and trundle off we've got free Heart is Deceitful swag to give away, swag in the form of t shirts for both the men and the ladies. Lovely, they are. Click here for the men's version and here for the woman's. Want one? Of course you do! Here's what you've got to do. I want finger pointing, people. Steer me the way to the biggest literary frauds going, the bigger the better and I don't care whether you can substatiate a word of it, just sling some mud and let's see if it sticks. Yes, that's right: I want fictional accusations of supposed books of fact actually being composed of fiction. Follow that? I didn't. Just do your best and do it before March 10th, which, incidentally, is the day the film opens in New York and LA. Send the entries to me here and label them clearly as being for the Heart is Deceitful contest, please..

I think this is far to crazy to put into words. My friends and I have been talking about this and the ramifications of it for a month. My ex girlfriend used to live her life by JT Leroy - it's quite impossible to think of how she reacts to it now. Also, what about Gus Van Sant and Argentio who were led on - my goodness, that is huge as well.

The films was good, I haven't seen it since 2004's film fest but I do remember thinking it was a good intrepration of the book. And now that the book is fiction, I wonder if this will take away from the emotion or value of the film. I would like to watch it again knowning it was fake.

Also, the next big literary scandal will be The Hardy Boys never sovled or were involved in adventures - all they did would get high, listen to rock records, try and cop a feel of nancy drew (who was real but was actually a 40 year old women with one leg) and chase hobo's down the streets with sticks that had poo on the end of them. Yup, it's going to shock the world mr.brown - shock I say.
