Source: The Hollywood Reporter
The Hollywood Reporter says that Bradley Cooper is set to star in Dark Fields, a thriller being directed by Neil Burger.
The story follows a down-and-out writer (Cooper) who gets his hands on a top-secret pharmaceutical drug that makes one smarter. He experiences sudden financial and social success but soon discovers that the drug has lethal and lasting side effects, including "trip-switching," a phenomenon in which time moves with a stop-motion quality. Before long, mysterious antagonists are pursuing him.
The thriller, based on the book by Alan Glynn with the screenplay written by Leslie Dixon, is said to be in the vein of Fight Club and The Game.

If there was a drug like that - one that could boost your mental ability through the roof, kind of like steroids for the brain- I think I'd try it and the side effects be damned. In fact, I remember reading this big-assed non-fiction book once called the Mondo 2000 : a user's guide to the new edge and one of the editors, a guy with the unlikely name of R.U. Sirius, claimed that there really were such things as "smart drugs" and he took them on a regular basis. So, my question is: Is there anyone on this board that takes such drugs? What kind of results have you gotten? Any side effects? What are they? And, where can I get some?
