Our selection for this week has a great script and a lead actor playing somewhat against type. It's harder than our selection for last week as well: the dialogue moves faster and there are fewer environmental clues. But it's a fair challenge. So listen in and if you think you know our mystery film fire off an email to us at echo@popupchinese.com.Incidentally, while the bit in this podcast about us treating our podcasters like homeless vagrants is not true, we are looking for extra voice talent.... So get in touch if you are or if you know a suitable candidate. The catch is that they've got to already be in Beijing.

All the clues fit, Jim Carey playing against type, Ed Harris as Christo, ingenious script by the same guy who wrote (and direct?) Gattaca, it is The Truman Show.

I don't think we can confirm that until Friday :p but the clues definitely fit. I had no idea the same screenwriter worked on Gattaca incidentally - they should give him more work.
