...doing any of your own writing these days? Woody Harrelson and I are gonna start writing something in August. We had an idea of maybe playing brothers, maybe writing it in Europe or Vancouver. The way Wes [Anderson] and I would write was a lot of hanging out, going out to eat. With Woody--ahhh, well, we'll have to work on making sure we stay focused on the task...

While the feat in itself is inspiring, it is difficult to feel inspired by a story full of characters who represent actual individuals, but come off as implausible devices...
Actors thrive on this approach too. The production attracted such names as Meryl Streep and Lily Tomlin (who play a country-music sister act and really sing), teen tabloid queen Lindsay Lohan (Streep's daughter), Kevin Kline (Guy Noir, the private-eye character on Companion) and Woody Harrelson and John C. Reilly (Companion's singing cowboys, Dusty and Lefty...
