Is Greg Mottola's 'Adventureland' Next Year's 'Rushmore'? Plus Script Gives It Up For Neil Young, Lou Reed, The Smiths, '80s Alterna-Rock And More - The Playlist
A coming of age story set in the 1980s at an Adventureland theme park, the film is set to star Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart and Ryan Reynolds among many others as post-college graduates forced to spend a miserable summer working in a Long Island family amusement park ...Other tunes included in the script are tracks by The Smiths, "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out," (itself sounding like a true music-cinema moment)
Who knows if they all made the script, but director Greg Mottola did say they cleared the use of 50-some songs and Yo La Tengo's James McNew (YLT composed the movie's score) confirmed to us that an early cut of the film contained a boatload of songs.

The film hits U.S. theatres on March 27th.
