LOS ANGELES (AP) — "The End of The Tour" is the story of two Davids meeting at a crossroads. One, acclaimed novelist David Foster Wallace, is at the peak of his success. The other, fellow writer David Lipsky, isn't unsuccessful, but idly longs for Wallace's talent and fame while on assignment for Rolling Stone magazine to profile the author. The story went unpublished, but the recorded discussions between the men during the "Infinite Jest" press tour in 1996 were turned into a memoir after Wallace hung himself in 2008. Those dialogues provided the bones of the film, out Friday, starring Jason Segel as Wallace and Jesse Eisenberg as Lipsky, about that fraught, funny road trip through the Midwest.
