The New Age -- A hip couple who open a trendy L.A. Boutique to finance a 'civilized' divorce in a biting tale of our times.

The Rapture -- Emmy-nominee Mimi Rogers is riveting as a Los Angeles telephone operator who tires of mate-swapping and turns to a religious sect for spiritual guidance.

"Your inner child is running us into bankruptcy!" Katherine Witner screams at her newly jobless husband Peter. "Why don't you get in touch with your inner adult?" A with-it L.A. couple scrambles to avoid being without it in the sharply witty The New Age. Following up his biting screenplay for The Player, writer/director Michael Tolkin now bursts the balloons of more La-La-Land sham and scam. Peter Weller and Judy Davis play the Witners, a trendy twosome with more dollars than sense as they careen along a downhill path of mad business pursuits, sexual escapades, new-age babble and questionable spiritualism. In a glitzy society where everyone's born to shop, the Witners are starting to drop - and they're going like the '90s in "the sexiest, smartest comedy this decade has produced" (Polly Frost, Harper's Bazaar).

In this rollicking update of the Dumas classic, the descendants of the original Musketeers may have exchanged horses for motorcycles, but they still fight injustice wherever they find it. When a mob boss kidnaps a young boy, they ride into action. But it's only with the help of an unofficial fourth Musketeer (Cheech Marin) that they can save the day. David Hasselhoff, Thomas Gottschalk and Alison Doody round out the cast.

Emmy-nominee Mimi Rogers (AUSTIN POWERS: INTERNATIONAL MAN OF MYSTERY, LOST IN SPACE) is riveting as a Los Angeles telephone operator who tires of mate-swapping and turns to a religious sect for spiritual guidance. Director/Writer Michael Tolkin's (THE PLAYER, DEEP IMPACT) bold approach to religious themes makes this tragic drama both a demanding and unforgettable experience. It's an amazing, disturbing story of squandered life, rebirth, and tested faith. Also starring Emmy-nominee David Duchovny (HOUSE OF D, TV's "The X-Files").
