Ghost Writer

Ghost Writer

Who's in it: Alan Cumming, David Boreanaz

What's it about: John(Cumming) has always wanted fame and fortune. He has always loved music and helping other people. After allowing Sebastian(Boreanaz) into his home, John begins to obsess and fawn over him. He thinks that he is sheltering the greatest writer that ever lived, even though he hasn't seen one page of the novel. When he helps in the murder of young Sebastian, he turns in the novel under his own name. Riden with guilt, he begins to see and hear Sebastian around his home and other places he happens to be.

What I Think: I might tell you that this movie is originally under the name Suffering Man's Charity. I just so happen to love Alan Cumming and everything he's in and everything he does. I was surprised by this movie and all of the sexuality that happened to be in it. I thought that the story needed a bit more work before it was produced, but all in all, it was a great movie. Not one for a family, but more of a movie to watch by yourself when you don't plan on doing anything for a while. You need to pay close attention to the movie to really get it. Boreanaz did a great job, in my opinion, and deserves special appraisal for being put through his torturous scene in women's underclothing.
