From Coming Soon! McConaughey Gets Stuck in The Loop Source: Production Weekly November 6, 2004
Matthew McConaughey will star in the idiosyncratic romance The Loop, reports Production Weekly. Directed, written, and produced by former cinematographer and commercials director SR Binder, the film is an adaptation of a novel by Joe Coomer. Here's how the book is described:
Lyman, a thirty-year-old orphan, is sipping coffee on the front steps of the trailer he calls home one morning, when a ninety-year-old parrot arrives with a beakful of cryptic sayings -- such as "That which hath wings shall tell the matter" -- and a mysterious past. Convinced that heeding the bird's wisdom will lead him to answers about himself he so desperately seeks, Lyman combines his night job as a courtesy patrolman, circling the highway that loops around Fort Worth, with days in the library. Together with Fiona, the loquacious librarian, he traces his adopted pet's origins, and while what Lyman ultimately discovers may not help him piece together his own past, it paves the way for a future he never imagined.
The Loop starts filming in April.
