Jonathan Levine must have a wild imagination, that or just excellent insight. Who else could envision Sir Ben Kingsley hooking up with Mary-Kate Olsen in a phone booth or bubble gum Nickelodeon star Josh Peck playing a high school drug dealer in Manhattan? Writer/director Levine does it all in his new film The Wackness about a lonely pot dealer who trades weed for therapy. At the same time the Sundance winner (Audience Award) takes a nostalgic look back at the music, games and fashion of 1994. We talked to Kingsley, Peck, Thirlby and Levine to find out more about the dark comedy.
