I was 15 minutes into White Noise (starring Michael Keaton) before I stopped, Googled it, and realized that it wasn't the White Noise based on the Don DeLillo novel, which novel I've never read and which movie isn't even out yet. The Michael Keaton-ness of it should have tipped me off sooner, but a man communicating with his dead wife through the TV...that sounds like DeLillo could have written it, doesn't it?
