| HAPPY
ENDINGS |
| OCTOBER |
 |
| Just when you thought you knew everything
about love and dysfunction, along comes HAPPY ENDINGS,
Lions Gate Films’ hilarious and heartfelt new comedy
by writer/director Don Roos (The Opposite of Sex, Bounce).
Featuring a talented ensemble cast that includes Tom Arnold,
Jesse Bradford, Bobby Cannavale, Sarah Clarke, Steve Coogan,
Laura Dern, Lisa Kudrow, Jason Ritter, David Sutcliffe
and Maggie Gyllenhaal,, HAPPY ENDINGS deftly weaves together
multiple stories to create a sharp, witty look at love,
family and the sheer unpredictability of life itself.
A feast of buried secrets, missed opportunities and welcome
second chances, this wildly original comedy proves that
the happiest ending of all is the one you least expect. |

| A young American Jewish man (Elijah
Wood) travels to find the woman who saved his grandfather

the Nazi invasion. He is assisted in his search by Alex
(Eugene Hutz), a Ukranian translator, and Alex's cranky
grandfather (Boris Leskin). But what starts out as the
tour from hell turns into a surprisingly meaningful journey—with
an unexpected and powerful series of revelations that
will indelibly change all of their lives. Written and
directed by actor Liev Schreiber (The Manchurian Candidate),
based on the novel by Jonathan Safran Foer. |

| 112505 |
|
| A New York anthropologist, named Professor
Harold Moore (Robert Kerman), travels to the wild, inhospitable
jungles of South American with two local guides to find
out what happened to a documentary film crew which disappeared
nearly a year earlier while traveling into the same jungle,
called the 'Green Inferno' to film a documentary about
reputed cannibal tribes. After a long search and encountering
a few primitive tribes, Professor Moore finds the remains
of the crew and several reels of their undeveloped film.
Upon returning to the USA, Professor Moore views the film
in detail featuring the travels of the director Alan Yates
(Gabriel York), his assistant Faye Daniels (Francesa Ciardi),
and cameramen Jack Anders (Perry Pirkanen) and Mark Tomaso
(Luca Giorgio Barbareschi) venturing into the jungles
where the inexperienced, street-wise film group, after
finding the indigenous tribes to docile for their film,
decide to push them for kicks, with drastic consequences. |
