Former O.C. star Mischa Barton is coming out on the big screen in Roland
Joffe's Russian coming-of-age drama Finding t.A.T.u., reports Variety.
The movie, adapted from the novel t.A.T.u. Come Back
by Russian author A.
Mitrofanov, follows the story of a lonely American teenager in Moscow who
becomes friends with a local girl over their obsession with the gay-for-pay pop
band t.A.T.u.
In 2000 t.A.T.u. caused international controversy with their music video
single "I've Lost My Mind." The video, which aired on MTV Russia, depicted the
band's two female singers dressed as Catholic school girls singing the song and
kissing sensually.
With the release of the documentary Anatomiya t.A.T.u. in 2003, it became
apparent that the girls' sexuality was a publicity stunt.
The cast also includes Shantel VanSanten, Anton Yelchin, Alex Kaluzhsky, and
Helena Mattsson. (The Advocate) AUTHOR： |
