Another fun stoner movie! AICN has debuted the official poster for Tim Blake Nelson's Leaves of Grass starring Edward Norton (twice) as two brothers. We ran a trailer for this last year and I've heard that it might be out in theaters sometime this spring, so keep your eyes open at your local art house for Leaves of Grass sometime this year. I like this poster but it's not perfect, mainly because I'm sure the MPAA told them they're not allowed to have any marijuana-related symbols or paraphenalia, which I'm sure is why there are some rolling papers and nothing else. I actually really enjoyed this film and suggest everyone check it out!

An Ivy League professor (played by Edward Norton) is lured back to his Oklahoma hometown, where his twin brother, a small-time pot grower, has concocted a simple scheme to take down a local drug lord.

Leaves of Grass is both written and directed by fellow actor Tim Blake Nelson, who directed Eye of God, Othello and The Grey Zone previously. This was produced independently by Tim Blake Nelson and Edward Norton and first premiered at the Toronto Film Festival earlier this year. It does not have a US distributor yet, as far as we know, but will probably pick up one and hit theaters sometime in 2010. Look good so far?
