More movie stars joining the cast of "Dedication," an upcoming comedy flick which will mark the directorial debut of actor Justin Theroux. Those are Billy Crudup, Mandy Moore, Harvey Keitel, Mia Farrow and Bob Balaban.

The story of the film concerns a misogynistic children's book writer (Crudup) who is forced to collaborate with a young female illustrator (Moore) when his writing partner and only friend (Keitel) dies. Farrow will play the domineering mother of Moore's character, while Balaban plays the book's publisher.

I was at Sundance this year and saw Dedication. It was suprisingly really, really good...and honestly Mandy's acting was incredible! I think this role is going to do so much for her...the whole film was great-funny and dark all at once, with really good music and a good take on love and relationships. Billy Crudup is pretty incredible too! Does anyone know when it's being released nationwide?
