The Minus Man -- Drifter Vann Siegert rolls into a quaint town where middle-aged couple Doug and Jane take him in as a boarder. Vann's amiable demeanor wins over the townsfolk, but little do they suspect the homicidal intentions hiding behind his all-American looks.

An aspiring artist negotiates the cruel, concrete world of New York's bohemian art scene.

A man trying to honor the last wish of his beloved wife has to keep an entire city alive in this bittersweet romantic comedy. Marcello (Jean Reno "The Professional," "The Da Vinci Code") is the owner of a restaurant in a small village in Italy. His wife Roseanna (Academy Award and Golden Globe-winner Mercedes Ruehl "The Fisher King," "Big") has received some awful news: she has learned that her weak heart has gotten worse, and she has only a few weeks to live. Roseanna has given Marcello a final request: she wants to be buried next to her daughter, who died some years before. Marcello wants nothing more than to comply with her wishes, but theres a problem; the towns cemetery is quite small, and right now funeral plots are on a first-come, first-served basis. The spot next to Roseanna's daughter does happen to be open, but she'll only get it if no one else dies first. So Marcello suddenly becomes the villages watchdog of health and safety, trying to make sure no one needlessly dies, and even shuffles around a few bodies of people who do happen to pass on. Meanwhile, Rosanna is worried about both Marcello and her sister Cecilia (Golden Globe-nominee Polly Walker TV's "Rome," "Patriot Games") and would like them to marry after her death so they wont have to be alone. However, Marcello and Cecilia don't always get along very well, and besides, Cecilia is in love with Antonio (Mark Frankel "Leon the Pig Farmer"), whose father has prevented the towns cemetery from expanding.

Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson are wonderful together in this lighthearted look at modern romance headed for failure, based on Nora Ephron's best-selling novel. She's a magazine writer who gives up her career for love and family. He's a playboy newspaper columnist who can't quite give up his old tricks. And if that combination doesn't give a relationship Heartburn, nothing will!

For twenty years they shared something stronger than friendship and closer than love, yet they never met. A true story based on the bestselling novel by Helen Hanff.

While on a flight to Los Angeles, mobster Victoria Galetti, well aware that she's been ratted out and the cops are waiting to arrest her at the airport, stashes a bag holding $1 million into the luggage of Raj Lukla, who's in town to visit his nephew Andy. To keep track of the money, Victoria rips the address tag off one of Raj's bags. But when her partners finally track down Raj, the money is missing. The reason? Andy's dog hid it.

A series of mishaps and misfortunes over $1 million in cash leads to murder, mayhem and greed.

When quiet and amiable Vann Siegert (Owen Wilson) drifts into town, no one suspects the evil that lies beneath the surface. When locals start to disappear, it becomes clear that an eerie subtraction is at work among the lost and lonely of this sleepy, seaside hamlet. People look toward Vann, but no one can quite put their finger on who he really is. Through it all, he carries on a surreal dialogue with imaginary detectives (Dwight Yoakam and Dennis Haysbert) who question his crimes and motives. Janeane Garofalo, Brian Cox and Mercedes Ruehl also star in this unsettling and offbeat psychological thriller that looks in the mind of a serial killer.
