A cranky Michael Caine meets his match with Aubrey Plaza in the trailer for Best Sellers
Caine and Plaza reluctantly embark on a book tour to revive both of their careers
Oscar-winner Michael Caine and Aubrey Plaza exchange some not-so-kind words in the trailer for dramatic comedy Best Sellers. The two face-off in a competition to see who can hurl the best insults, and eventually team up to popularize the phrase “bullshite” in the book world.
The official log line for the film reads: “Lucy Standbridge has inherited her father’s publishing house, and the ambitious would-be editor has nearly sunk it with failing titles. She discovers she is owed a book by Harris Shaw, a reclusive, cantankerous, booze-addled author who originally put the company on the map decades earlier. In a last-ditch effort to save the company, Lucy and Harris release his new book and embark on a book tour from hell that changes them both in ways they didn’t expect.”
