Why September is cool.

Coming out on my 33rd birthday:

Burn After Reading is an upcoming comedy film, set for a September 12, 2008 release, starring John Malkovich, George Clooney, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand and Brad Pitt, and made by Joel and Ethan Coen.

Malkovich will play Ozzie Cox, a CIA vet who is fired because he is an alcoholic. He takes his revenge by writing some inflammatory memoirs. Cox's soon-to-be ex-wife Katie (Tilda Swinton) steals the disc containing his memoirs and accidentally leaves it at the gym where it is found by a trainer Chad Feldheimer (Brad Pitt) and the gym's owner Linda Litzke (Frances McDormand) who believe they can use the info to blackmail Cox.

Harry Pfarrer (George Clooney) is a fellow CIA spy investigating the matter, who meets Linda via computer dating. Harry is a friend of Ozzie's and starts to have an affair with Katie and later with Linda as he starts to get caught up in the situation between the trainers and the CIA.
