Loser (DVD)
Amy Heckerling (CLUELESS, FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH) directs this romantic comedy starring Jason Biggs as Paul Tannek, a nerdy college freshman with a heart of gold, and Mena Suvari as Dora Diamond, the girl of his dreams. Small-town boy Paul goes to the big city to attend college with high hopes of fitting in and making friends. But from the start, he`s fighting an uphill battle. His dorky hat and earnest mannerisms drive his cosmopolitan, ultra-hip roommates crazy, and he finds himself labeled a loser, kicked out of their dorm suite, and living in a room in a veterinary hospital. Meanwhile, Paul falls for Dora, a quirky free spirit who is having a clandestine affair with their professor, Edward Alcott (Greg Kinnear). Despite his feelings for her, Paul does his best to protect Dora from the fact that Alcott doesn`t care about her nearly as much as she thinks he does. LOSER also includes brief cameo appearances by Dan Akroyd, David Spade, Andy Dick, Steven Wright, Andrea Martin, Colleen Camp, and Taylor Negron.PG-13"

IN THEATRES: FEBRUARY 23, 2003
There aren`t many cops left like Eldon Perry (Kurt Russell). A member of the Los Angeles Police Department`s Special Investigations Squad (SIS), veteran Perry is no stranger to the violence of the streets and the tough decisions that come with the job. He rarely questions the orders given by his powerful boss, Jack Van Meter (Brendan Gleeson). When Van Meter`s nephew, Bobby Keogh (Scott Speedman) joins SIS and becomes Perry`s partner, the stakes are raised. Keogh, who idolizes both his uncle and Perry, is eager to prove himself. But the naove rookie has no idea how deep the corruption in the department runs. Set during the racially charged days before the Rodney King verdict and the ensuing L.A. riots, DARK BLUE also looks at racism within the department through its focus on Assistant Chief Arthur Holland (Ving Rhames), who questions the SIS brotherhood and is determined to be the first black chief of the LAPD. Russell is a powerhouse as Perry, a man who has made some difficult decisions in the name of justice. Directed by Ron Shelton (BULL DURHAM, TIN CUP) and based on a story by James Ellroy, the film also stars Michael Michele, Lolita Davidovitch, and rapper Kurupt.
