Old Joy wasn't really much good at all, sadly (people seemed to like it because stuff doesn't blow up in it, but frankly, that's just a hair more ridiculous than liking a film because stuff does blow up in it). But if you disagree with my disinterest in this trite, smugly dialled-down closet melodrama - or would like the chance to disagree, at least - Solace in Cinema are offering Old Joy posters and DVDs as prizes in a contest.
I'll even tell you the answer, to help you along and make sure that you click. Bonny Prince Billy.
In his Will Oldham guise, he was in the superb Matewan - many, many moons ago - but since, sadly, he's just been in a string of shockers, including Junebug and Julien Donkey Boy, which are two of my most reviled films of the last ten years (though, to be fair, I don't recall him being in Donkey Boy, and it might just be one of those infamous imdb blips and perhaps he's only on the soundtrack).
