Oracle of DelphiMy Blueberry Nights with Jude Law and Norah Jones

Blueberry Nights poster starring Jude Law Rachel Weisz
IMDB.com bills this movie as "A young woman (Norah Jones) takes a soul-searching journey across America to resolve her questions about love while encountering a series of offbeat characters along the way."
Sounds like a typical chick-flick, however given the stars which include Norah Jones, Jude Law, Natalie Portman and Rachel Weisz (among others) I would not dismiss it so quickly.
Jude Law looking scruffy in Blueberry Nights
This will be the first English film for director whose previous movies I've never actually heard of, although they must be good for him to be given the budget to hire actors of a calibre of Jude Law, Rachel Weisz, and Natalie Portman who all have supporting roles. Ed Harris also has a role and he is always compelling to watch. It seems that singer Norah Jones was the only choice for the lead role despite never having acted before, although I assume someone has paid for lessons of some sort.
Norah Jones (star) and Kar Wai Wong (director) in Blueberry Nights
It was rumoured that this movie would be about Hurricane Kartrina, although this has been denied. Evidently it's to be a good old road movie involving a young woman finding out about true love. How touching.
Norah Jones in Blueberry Nights
It was filmed in the United States, including locations in Caliente, Nevada, specifically at the Brandin' Iron resturant and in New York City. It was also largely filmed at the Palacinka Cafe in soHo, New York. Some scenes were shot at the restaurant The Arcade and the Bar Ernestine and Hazel's, in Memphis.
Natalie Portman in Blueberry Nights. Yummy.
It will be the opening film for the 2007 Cannes Film Festival.

Btw, that last photo of Natalie Portman is not from Blueberry Nights, it's from Closer, directed by Mike Nichols, released in 2004. It's the scene where Portman is a stripper and gives Clive Owen a lap dance.
