Arcadia Lost

We have news about a new Nick Nolte film that’ s set in Greece. We get the following scoop from the Epicurean caves of Yahoo:

Nick Nolte, Haley Bennett and Carter Jenkins face a Greek holiday tragedy in the independent coming-of-age-drama “Arcadia Lost.” Bennett and Jenkins play step-siblings whose first family trip is cut short by a car crash. With their parents dead, the stunned teens roam the Greek countryside and befriend an expatriate vagabond (Nolte) who leads them to a mysterious spiritual ceremony.

Director Phedon Papamichael, best known as the cinematographer of “Sideways” and “Walk the Line,” is filming David Ariniello’s screenplay in his native Greece. The shoot can be tracked by Facebook members in the site’s “Follow a Film” section.

What sort of spiritual ritual will vagabond Nolte lead them through? Is Nolte a worshipper of the old Gods? Does he take the youngsters to the temple of the Taurobolium cult where they’re baptized in bull’s blood? I hope so, I want the rituals are crazy. If you’re going to have Nick Nolte as a shaman shambler in Greece, you better make his rituals intense.

It’s cool that they will have a “follow a film” section on their facebook page. I will see if I can add these fellows as a friend and keep an eye on the progress. I am very curious about the voodoo of Nolte and hope to see him wearing a majestic robe of many colors, with a face always covered in a bright shiny coat of Bull’s blood.

Worship at the gates of Nolte.
