First clip of Todd Solondz’s ‘Dark Horse’ is unsurprisingly weird

If you’re unfamiliar with the work of Todd Solondz, you’re in for a weird treat. His films include Welcome to the Dollhouse, Happiness, Storytelling, and the awesome Palindromes. When you’re not in a depressed mood, watch them. His latest film is called Dark Horse and will likely follow the theme of strange relationships and weird human interaction.

The film is slated to premiere at the Toronoto International Film Festival, where we get our first (surprisingly brief) clip:

Dark Horse stars newcomer Jordan Gelber, Christopher WalkenMia FarrowSelma BlairZachary Booth and Donna Murphy. Here is the official synopsis:

A thirtysomething guy with arrested development (Justin Bartha) falls for a thirtysomething girl with arrested development (Selma Blair), but moving out of his junior high school bedroom proves too much and tragedy ensues.

Anyone else a Solondz fan? Which film was your favorite?
