Corrina, Corrina -- A heartwarming story about a family devastated by grief and the woman who helps heal the loss. Manny Singer (Ray Liotta) hires African American Corrina Washington (Whoopi Goldberg) to work as maid and nanny after the death of his wife.

A jazz musician has been in a creative slump over the mysterious death of his wife. He finds a new lover and tries to rediscover his interest. However, his past soon comes to haunt him and he finds himself in the same situation when his wife was killed.

A terrific ensemble cast powers this fast-paced action-adventure based on the true story of the rise of organized crime in America. Mobsters traces the daring exploits of four close friends growing up in the 1920's New York: the charming "Lucky" Luciano (Christian Slater), the savvy Meyer Lansky (Patrick Dempsey), the headstrong "Bugsy" Siegel (Richard Grieco) and the diplomatic Frank Costello (Costas Mandylor). From their humble beginnings, they formed an impenetrable bond that led them to the top of the underworld in this visually stunning film co-starring the sultry Lara Flynn Boyle and Oscar®-winning actors F. Murray Abraham and Anthony Quinn.

Academy Award, Emmy Award and Golden Globe-winner Whoopi Goldberg ("Ghost," "The Color Purple," "Sister Act") and Emmy Award and Golden Globe-nominee Ray Liotta (TV's "ER," "Something Wild") star in this heartwarming story about a family devastated by grief and the woman who helps heal the loss. Manny Singer (Liotta) hires African American Corrina Washington (Goldberg) to work as maid and nanny after the death of his wife. As the talented and intelligent Corrina helps Singer's daughter (Tina Majorino – "Napoleon Dynamite," "When a Man Loves a Woman") cope with the loss of her mother--and Singer discovers Corrina's intelligence--a relationship develops between them, growing from respect, to affection...to love. But Manny and Corrina live in the United States in 1959, and the racism that prevents Corrina from working as more than a maid threatens to tear the two apart.
