If you'e spent the past several years staring forlornly at your DVD of George Washington and silently weeping then this news might pop you outta that cineaste funk - director David Gordon Green has taken a break from making Jonah Hill vehicles to return to his indie roots (sorta) and shot a secret quickie last month in Austin. I say "(sorta)" because the cast isn't so small - Paul Rudd and Emile Hirsch. But it's a remake of an Icelandic film so that's like fifty indie points back in the plus column, right?

Says The Playlist:
"Details are still being firmed up, but here's what is known thus far. The folks over at Twitch reveal that Green rounded up Paul Rudd and Emile Hirsch for the film that shot last month in Austin, and is a remake of Icelandic filmmaker Hafsteinn Gunnar Sigurðsson's "Either Way" ("Á annan veg"). In that film, the story is set in the '80s and follows two highway maintenance men who work together in the barren wilderness and chronicles their evolving friendship. And we presume with the slender cast and Texas location, Green hasn't strayed too much from the source. Variety adds that Green's film is titled "Prince Avalanche" and that's about all for details."
You should recall that Green is set to shoot his Suspiria remake with Isabelle Fuhrmann and Isabelle Huppert in the Fall, too. Suspiria remake with Isabelle Fuhrmann and Isabelle Huppert. It just sounds goddamned good, those words put together.
