Sounds lovely and romantic. It’s a family-dynamic film, though, and apparently quite funny (see Liris’ comment on her post). We wait in hope for release and finally we know the title. Hecking crumbs, at last (I mean crumbs like wow, not a crumb of info, but also that I suppose).

It’s funny the main cast posted those photos before, but with no information. Can they get excited and tell us things, please? Do they think if they hype too much, it won’t happen? Is everyone else under NDA?

Anyway. Browsing Griffin’s tag on instagram, because insomnia, I find this post from back in August by Liris Crosse (such a pretty name), an actress in the film Griffin and co partly filmed in Italy, which gives the title and director’s name. I can stop checking IMDb where it’s not listed yet (I’ll probably still check). Looking up Liris on YouTube in case of a showreel or past clips and interviews, turns out she’s an author and model, which does not surprise me, she’s stunning.

The director is Victoria Strouse and now I see she’s the person in the photos they shared whose name I didn’t know. I’m instantly a fan since I find she co-wrote Finding Dory, Family Switch and Let It Snow. I loved them all and the book of Let It Snow. Tbh I felt the film didn’t quite do it justice, though it came close (what happened to Jubilee’s name?) Still, it was very good and fun, Isabela Merced has a good role and Hallea Jones is fun (all the “good” and “fun” again 😏

A tap on Victoria Strouse’s tag brings up a few posts about a script called The Seekers of Perpetual Love. Searching that title, a page from June comes up listing production of a film of that name, so perhaps it’s Perpetual rather than Infinite (there’s a poetic phrase).

Another site confirms that’s likely the case and gives a synopsis. Yet another mentions the script’s original title was The Apostles of Infinite Love (the link isn’t working for tumblr, but it’s on The Wrap). And one more site gives details in a review of the staged reading of it in 2014 for Black List Live!

Now I’m even more curious about the casting (ie which one’s which) and to see the film. This seems like a really good role for Griffin. I’m a proud fan (also still intrigued to see Pig Village, and same there).

Second photo includes a familiar face being cute, with Liris and Justin Theroux. Final photo is Liris Crosse with Victoria Strouse.

Links to my previous posts of the cast. Also articles, starting with minor spoilers in the thumbnail and in the film summary. The second is the more spoilery review. And my comments at the end (just info the summary gives plus character surname).
