Emma Stone is starring in her second collaboration with Woody Allen: his 51st film, called Irrational Man. Stone plays a college student who falls in love with her philosophy professor, played by Joaquin Phoenix. Wait, a Woody Allen film where a young woman falls in love with an older man? You don't say. Sony Classics released a first look at the movie today.

Irrational Man is the name of a seminal 1958 book by William Barrett about existential philosophy. The movie, which was filmed last summer in Newport, Rhode Island, follows Phoenix's character in an existential crisis. His life gets new meaning when he begins a relationship with his student. Irrational Man also stars Parker Posey. It will be in theaters July 17.
