Amber Heard, Zach Gilford and "The River Why"

January 15, 2009 By: Marshall Cutchin

The February issue of Outside magazine features a story about the steep slope David James Duncan’s novel ascended on its way to becoming a movie. On their Web site, Outside posts an Amber Heard photo gallery and a video interview with Zach Gilford, who plays the protagonist in what the editors call the movie version of Duncan’s “bildungsroman” (I’m not kidding). Let’s hope the movie itself is a bit more scintillating.
