NOW SEE THIS: Michael Cera in Islands' "No You Don't"

Watch this sweet vid of Islands' "No You Don't," in which Michael Cera trips out Ã la a high school anti-drug film strip.

Cera appears at a theater near you on Friday with Miguel Arteta's Youth in Revolt. Cindy Fuchs saw it and totally dug it, giving the film an A-:

Nick Twisp (Michael Cera) is a nice kid. So nice that he's a good student, a virgin and a source of comfort for his frazzled mom (Jean Smart). He's also so aware of being nice that he keeps a picture of Frank Sinatra, circa "Nice 'n' Easy," on his bedroom wall. But when Nick meets the poetically inclined Sheeni (Portia Doubleday), all that niceness is suddenly a problem. Their separation leads him to desperate measures, embodied by his alternative self, a pencil-mustachioed, skinny-white-slacks-wearing, troublemaking Francophile named Francois Dillinger. Keep reading...

Check back soon for an interview with Cera about his experiences on Youth in Revolt and his thoughts on why not judging books by their covers is totally racist.

UPDATE!!!

Drew Lazor just showed me this vid of Cera's Letterman appearance, including a clip of 10-year-old Cera on La Femme Nikita (!!!):
