Apple Store Getting Wacky

By Margaret Lyons in Arts & Entertainment on Jun 17, 2008 10:55PM

Josh Peck, aka Josh of Drake and Josh, is all growed up and selling the ganj in The Wackness, a Sundance not-quite-darling set in the summer of 1994. He'll be at the Apple Store on Michigan Ave on Thursday with Jonathan Levine, the film's writer and director, to show clips and answer questions.

The movie's a coming-of-age story about a pot dealer (Peck), his crush (Olivia Thirlby), her step-dad and his shrink (Ben Kingsley), the shrink's wife (Famke Jassen), and other people (Mary-Kate Olsen and Method Man). Yes, it's the one where Olsen and Kingsley smooch.
