- Title: Salmon Fishing in the Yemen
- IMDB: link
Put Ewan McGregor and Emily Blunt in a movie together and you’ve piqued my interest, throw in a quirky script from Simon Beaufoy (Slumdog Millionaire, 127 Hours) and you’ve now got my full attention. Adapted from the novel by Paul Torday comes the tale of a fisheries expert (McGregor) enlisted to help bring fly-fishing to the Middle East. Kristin Scott Thomas, Rachael Stirling, Amr Waked, and Catherine Steadman also star. Directed by Lasse Hallström, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen opens in theaters on March 9th.
