I think not!!!
'You and I' stars Mischa Barton, Shantel VanSanten and Anton Yelchin and was orginally called 'Finding T.A.T.U', as in the Russian girl group Tatu.
Plot Outline
Set against a background of music, internet chat rooms, and hedonistic Moscow nightlife, the story follows friendless American teenager Janie Sawyer who is trying to escape her lonely life in Moscow through her love of music. Janie meets Lana Starkova (Barton) on a fansite for the pop-band t.A.T.u. Trapped in a provincial Russian town, Lana is desperate to flee her mundane life and the two girls develop an instant connection. The two girls adapt a poem by Lana into a song, and post it on YouTube. t.A.T.u.'s manager catches news of the the song, and contacts the girls in hopes they will allow t.A.T.u. to record the song. Janie and Lana's complex relationship then becomes the catalyst for a series of adventures that will not only test their willingness to submit to others, but also their ideals, aspirations, loyalty, and love for one another.
Lord, Mischa Barton can barely act with a normal accent imagine the trainwreck when she speaks with an accent.
'You and I' is directed by Roland Joffe who directed 'The Killing Fields' and 'The Mission'.
It had its first cut screened at Cannes on Friday the 16th.
So the next time i post something about this film, I'll either be congratulating myself for spotting the shit a mile away or ill be eating my words, im guessing it will be the 1st one.

this looks really terrible.
When i first heard about a tatu movie i thought it would be about the crazy fake lesbian scheme. But no- its even worse.
Remember Mischa in the 6th sense? Thats where she peaked for me.
Good thing she's pretty.
