![]() Easy Virtue It’s love at first sight for John Whittaker, a young, affluent Englishman, and Larita, a stunning American racecar driver. When the newlyweds return to meet the family, however, Mrs. Whittaker takes an instant dislike to her new forward-thinking daughter-in-law. In a dangerous mix of manipulation, sassiness and past secrets, Larita must decide exactly where her heart lies. Their Take: “Will charm your pants off,” —Village Voice Our Take: Witty, glamorous and delightful.
![]() Observe & Report Ronnie Barnhardt, head of mall security, is summoned to action when an unknown flasher threatens the safety of Forest Ridge Mall’s patrons. Not the brightest in the bunch, Barnhardt’s missteps in assailing the culprit force them to bring in a gruff detective to close the case. Can he prove himself and save the mall, all while winning the affection of his dream girl? Their Take: “There is no moral to this story, and there's not much comedy either,” —LA Times Our Take: We want the funny Seth Rogan back.
![]() Away We Go Burt and Verona are in their mid-thirties, unmarried and expecting their first child. When the couple find Burt’s parents aren’t going to be around for the birth of their granddaughter, they set out to find a new place to start their family. The couple traverses the U.S. visiting and re-connecting with family and friends to find out what “home” really means. Their Take: “Strikes an artful balance between satirical comedy and heart-wrenching drama,” —USA Today Our Take: So heartwarming and sweet, we left with tears in our eyes and smiles on our faces.
