Like a graphic novel come to life, "A Scanner Darkly" - directed by Richard Linklater and produced by George Clooney, Steven Soderbergh, Jonah Smith, Tommy Pallotta and Anne Walker-McBay - utilizes live action photography overlaid with an advanced animation process to create a haunting, highly stylized vision of the future. The technology was first employed in Linklater's 2001 film "Waking Life" and has evolved to produce even more impact and detail.
The movie is based on Philip K. Dick's novel "A Scanner Darkly" and will be released by Warner Independent Pictures September 16, 2005.
