From the top of my head I can recall the "Leaves of Grass" movie starring Edward Norton that came out in 2009. I've only seen it once a while ago, so I don't remember all the little details. Roughly it's about this university professor, Edward Norton, who is hornswoggled into returning to Oklahoma to help out his pot dealing twin brother in a scheme to stop a drug lord. It compares to "The Big Lebowski" in more than one way not just the pot references.
March 9, 2005 - In his 30-year career, musician Fred Hersch has performed in solo, duo, trio and quintet settings. In 2003 he received the prestigious Guggenheim Memorial Fellowship, which he used to work on his latest project, Leaves of Grass. For it, Hersch leads a 10-piece ensemble, which includes vocalists singing the words of Walt Whitman set to compositions by Hersch. He is touring the ensemble this month.
