Here we are at the second to last stop on the Steven Soderbergh farewell (for now) tour. After this and the upcoming Liberace biopic Behind the Candelabra, Soderbergh is going on a sabbatical. So, what will we have to remember SS by? Side Effects centers on Emily (Rooney Mara), a lawyerless wife who develops anxiety issues when her husband (a fedora-wearing Channing Tatum) returns from prison. (What did he study in prison? Fedora-making!? Seriously, why does he continue to wear them, even after we specifically told him to stop?) Jude Law plays a psychiatrist who gives her some experimental pill and has a light-hearted dance-off with her husband that somehow eventually results in the murdering of somebody. Also, Catherine Zeta-Jones is there, and she wears glasses. It’s set to be released on February 8, 2013, making it a perfect Valentine’s Day movie for those trying to never have to go to couples therapy again.
