Produktinformationen zu „Away We Go “
The first original screenplay by Dave Eggers and Vendela Vida, Away We Go is the new movie direcetd by Academy Award(R) winner Sam Mendes.
Longtime couple Verona (Maya Rudolph) and Burt (John Krasinski) are expecting a baby, and the impending child's only living grandparents are moving to--where else--Belgium. So Burt and Verona head out on the road, across America, looking for the right place to call home. Along the way they encounter a succession of strange and hilarious friends and relatives (played by a cast that includes Jeff Daniels, Catherine O'Hara, Maggie Gyllenhall, Josh Hamilton, Allison Janney, and Jim Gaffigan), most of whom have no idea what they're doing. In the end--with and despite the help of those they meet on their journey--Burt and Verona come closer to an understanding of their own definition of home and family.

Lese-Probe zu „Away We Go “
Int. burt and verona's house--bedroom--night
We are moving silently through a small house. We see fishing gear, snowshoes, paintings of skeletons. It's a messy, ramshackle, but still somehow charming place.
We arrive in the bedroom, where we see a woman, about 30, lying in bed, her head propped up by four pillows. She's wearing a negligee. It's very dark--we see only her silhouette.
VERONA
Burt?
Now we see that there's a man under the covers, busying himself with her nether regions.
BURT
(from under the sheets)
What?
VERONA
Don't.
There's some shuffling from Burt.
BURT
Why?
VERONA
Come back up. I want to kiss you.
More shuffling in the bed.
BURT
C'mon. I want to do this. I'm staying down here.
VERONA
(sighing)
Okay.
Verona tries to enjoy herself.
VERONA (CONT'D)
Just don't blow.
BURT
What?
VERONA
Don't blow.
BURT
Why would I blow?
VERONA
I don't know why you do anything you do, Burt. Just don't blow.
BURT
(from underneath)
Now stop moving. You're gonna love it.
VERONA
Okay. No more talking.
Burt settles in for the task at hand, then pauses.
VERONA (CONT'D)
What's wrong?
BURT
Nothing.
VERONA
Why'd you stop?
BURT
(thoughtful pause)
I'm trying to figure out the best way to say what I'm about to say.
VERONA
Why do you have to say anything?
BURT
Rona, you taste different. You know that?
Verona sits up, sighing.
VERONA
No. How would I know that, Burt?
(trying to pull him up)
Get up here. I'm not talking to the top of your head. You want me to shower?
Burt emerges from under the covers and stares at Verona.
BURT
No, you don't taste dirty, just different. Kind of . . . fruity.
(something occurring to him)
You know, a woman can taste different depending on various cofactors.
Verona sits up.
VERONA
I don't want to hear this. And I thought we agreed you wouldn't use the word

"cofactor."
BURT
I said I wouldn't misuse it. All I'm saying is that from what I've read about vaginal flavor--
VERONA
Jesus!
BURT
From what I've read, abrupt changes happen when a woman's either menopausal . . .
(registering a new, momentous thought)
Or . . .
Verona slugs him. He falls off the bed.
int. burt and verona's car--driving--night
It's November, the remains of snow on the ground. Verona and Burt have just gone to the drugstore for pregnancy tests--they've bought three--and are driving home.
Verona's driving, with Burt in the passenger seat.
burt farlander is 33, white, tall, looking like he could be either an assistant professor or a lunatic shooting people from a tower--there's that funny-crazy look in his eyes. He's very straightforward and earnest, but also eccentric--the type of guy who's never done drugs, but has often gone camping nude. He reads widely but not deeply enough, and has many strange hobbies, which he indulges for short periods of time but with utter seriousness. The last such hobby was bear-tracking. Like his father, he works in the insurance business.
verona de tessant is 34 and of mixed race--her mom was white, her father black. Her parents were both academics who taught at the University of South Carolina. She's cute, funny, and has problem hair, which she's constantly trying to tame with various styles and accessories--braids, curls, pins, a scarf--though the results vary. Still, her beauty and sense of humor are alluring and inspire many admirers.
She's a medical illustrator and has the necessary combination of the artistic and the exacting. Of the pair, she is the more so
