Russ is a local celebrity, but when an unusually mild winter causes his snowmobile dealership to take a plunge, Russ needs a get-rich scheme -- and fast. With his greedy girlfriend, the TV station's lotto-ball girl, and a criminally minded buddy, Russ hatches a plan to fix the lottery. Russ's numbers come up right, but then everything goes completely wrong, throwing Russ and his co-conspirators into comic chaos."--Container.

By Cage, Nicolas
Waters and Stone are two nobody police officers working dull administrative jobs and making extra money selling stolen Civil Service Exams to other officers. When Stone hears a story about a heroin dealer quickly beating his extremely high bail, the two friends set into motion a plan to find the origin of such a large amount of cash. Through diligent police work they follow a trail that leads directly to a custom bank-style vault built into the back room freezer of a small grocery store. They put a plan into motion to rob the vault and split whatever they find inside. But by the time they figure out what the vault contains, its already too late to turn back.

Red Knot
By Campbell, Billy
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A stunningly shot meditation on love and loss, New York newlyweds Peter (Kartheiser) and Chloe (Thriby) fall into marital crisis while on a research vessel en route to Antarctica. As romantic bliss sours, Chloe takes comfort in the company of the ship s captain (Billy Campbell) , a man who has good reason for setting himself adrift. As they sail towards the end of the Earth, filmmaker Scott Cohen s astonishingly assured, elegantly shot debut passes into troubled, Polanski-indebted waters.
REVIEW
One of the most gorgeous movies youll see this year! --Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
A quiet stunner of a drama ... Kartheiser makes this self-involved character more sympathetic and gently human than the one that made him famous on Mad Men; Thirlby, who has made the most of many small roles in her short career, has a light touch here that serves her character well. --John deFore, The Hollywood Reporter

The Boondock Saints
By Dafoe, Willem
Charismatic young stars Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus play two Irish brothers, Connor and Murphy, who believe themselves ordained by God to rid the world of evil men. Their first killing is in self-defense; but after that, they start killing with devotion, gunning down a summit of the Russian mafia. Willem Dafoe plays a gay FBI agent (he listens to opera while examining crime scenes) who knows what the boys are doing but feels that their vigilante tactics are necessary. There's not much plot to The Boondock Saints--it's mostly a series of violent scenes in which the boys are partially ingenious and partially lucky. The movie seems to want to provoke debate about vigilantism, but the scenario is too implausible to stir any real controversy.
