Advise & Consent -- A controversial political appointee triggers DC gamesmanship and scandal. Henry Fonda, Walter Pidgeon and Charles Laughton in Otto Preminger's film of Allen Drury's best seller.

Based on Peter Shaffer's West End and Broadway success, Five Finger Exercise is a sensitive and powerful domestic drama in which the corrosive effects of an insensitive father and an intellectual poseur of a mother take on tragic consequences for their offspring, and for the young German tutor lodging with them.

Academy Award-nominee, Emmy and Golden Globe-winner John Lithgow ("Shrek," "3rd Rock from the Sun"), Academy Award-nominee and Emmy- winner Dan Aykroyd ("50 First Dates," the "Ghostbusters" features) and Academy Award-nominee Albert Brooks ("Looking for Comedy in the Muslim World," "Defending Your Life") star in this film based on one of TV's most popular series. Rod Serling's classic science-fiction drama is translated to the silver screen through a unique collaboration from four of the industry's top creators: Academy Award, Emmy and Golden Globe- winner Steven Spielberg ("Munich," "War of the Worlds"), Academy Award- nominee George Miller ("Babe," "The Witches of Eastwick"), John Landis ("The Blues Brothers," "Animal House"), and Joe Dante ("Looney Tunes: Back in Action," "Gremlins" 1 & 2).
