Croce (son of the legendary Jim Croce), Henry Winkler (Happy Days, Barry), Paul Williams (Academy award winning composer), Rita Wilson (Actor, Producer), Jason Alexander (Seinfeld, and Tony Award winner), Alexandre Desplat (Academy award winner) and Alain Boublil (Les Miserable; Miss Saigon), the film is joyous, funny, poignant and above all intimate.

Two-Minute Warning

Larry Peerce

A nightmare of fear and panic unfolds in this chilling tale of a lone gunman who sets his sights on a sell-out crowd at a championship football game. Charlton Heston is the police captain who leads the desperate fight to stop the madman - high atop the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum - before he sets off widespread devastation in the jam-packed stadium. John Cassavetes and Martin Balsam are among those risking their lives to thwart the sniper's attempts, while innocent spectators Gena Rowlands, Jack Klugman, Beau Bridges, Walter Pidgeon, David Janssen and thousands of others try to hide from the fatal gun sites and avoid the deadly ensuing stampede.


A Separate Peace

Larry Peerce

"A Separate Peace" is, at it's deepest level, a fable about flawed human nature, which attempts to find in a personal act of betrayal a paradigm of the impulse to War. Gene and Finny, two sixteen-year-old roommates at a prep school in New England during World War II come to grips with the war, jealousy and betrayal. Based on a novel by John Knowles.


Goodbye Columbus

Larry Peerce

Based on author Phillip Roth' novella, Goodbye Columbus stars Richard Benjamin as Neil, a young man of humble means who falls in love with Jewish-American-princess Brenda (Ali MacGraw). Their romance is out of the question, as far as Brenda's suburbanite parents are concerned, so Neil and Brenda go to great lengths to keep their whirlwind romance under wraps. The trendy, New Wave-influenced direction by Larry Peerce gained a great deal of critical attention in 1969, but far more memorable is Peerce's amusingly straight-on depictions of upper-class Jewish/American social functions.
