AFI Dallas 2009 kicked off last night at AMC NorthPark with a screening of “The Brothers Bloom,” starring Adrien Brody, above, Mark Ruffalo and Rachel Weisz.
Brody showed up, walked the red carpet by the NorthPark escalators and was honored with AFI’s “Dallas Star award.”
“Brothers Bloom” is a comedy about grifters — like a cute, modern version of “Paper Moon.” The adorable Weisz gave the strongest performance as Penelope, the kooky millionaire who’s smarter than the brothers who are trying to swindle her.
