Another entry from the "twisted utopia" genre.

For this round....

Movies that have a name in the title, such as Auntie Mame, M. Hulot, Ben and so on. The name has to be a character in the movie but the character doesn't necessarily have to be human.

Unplayed movies, please. The archive is up-to-date except for the last round (incredibly weird). I won't be able to update the archive til after lunch since I have to run out to do some errands...so if you want to play The Legend of Leigh Bowery (there's a name!) you can't, because that was played in the last round! LOL

Have fun!

from EW, July 2007:

Blonsky, Sheedy tapped for Harold

Nikki Blonsky (Hairspray), Ally Sheedy, and Colin Quinn have joined the cast of teen comedy Harold. Blonsky will play Rhonda, the awkward best friend of balding teen Harold (Spencer Breslin), while Sheedy plays Maureen, Harold's mother who helps her prematurely aging son cope with incessant teasing. Quinn portrays a drunken barfly who's a regular at a strip club Harold frequents, and Cuba Gooding Jr., who is one of the movie's producers, also appears as a school janitor who befriends Harold. Filming just got underway in Great Neck, N.Y., Blonsky's hometown. The 18-year-old actress said she had no idea they would be filming there when she signed onto the project. It is Blonsky's first role since she landed the starring role as Tracy Turnblad in musical feature Hairspray. Sheedy will next appear in the upcoming indie drama Day Zero.

The movie is scheduled to premiere in New York on April 30th.
