The Big Year

The Big Year

While three friends compete to see who can observe the most bird species in North America. Bird Watchers aren't generally so competitive but this trio take on challenges just for the fun of it and the opportunity to "one up" each other. In the meantime viewers can see some great scenery and learn, at least a little, about birds and bird watching. teve Martin is having a late in life crisis while Owen Wilson and Jack Black each have mid life crisis issues or no life at all issues so each has their own demons to face when they come to a crossroads in their lives. Stu (Steve Martin from Grand Canyon, L.A. Story) is the most dedicated of bird watchers and makes this competition bigger than it needs to be. Jack Black (Gulliver's Travels, Tropic Thunder) is Brad Harris, who should be voted most likely to succeed in his no life crisis. Owen Wilson (Zoolander, Marley & Me) has his own demons to fight with his mid life crisis problems. Also look for the very talented Rashida Jones as Carol and Anjelica Huston as Debi Shearwater.

Larry Crowne

Larry Crowne

People like Larry Crowne (Tom Hanks) are what America is all about… right? Well, maybe. Before becoming "downsized" by his employer, a big box company he has worked for since his days in the Navy, Larry Crowne was amiable, affable, and had a big sense of humor. Now he is about to lose his house because he owes more than it would sell for and he can't quite figure out what to do with his time now that he's no longer employed.Going back to school, Larry finds he is definitely not alone and in fact finds plenty more who have either lost their job or never quite had one to begin with. As they band together and travel about town in a herd of scooters, Larry discovers strong feelings for one of his teachers, Mercedes Tainot (Julia Roberts). With a strong cast like Hanks, Roberts, Pam Grier, Jon Seda, Bryan Cranston, and George Takei plus director Tom Hanks (also co-director with Nia Vardalos) this is a must see summer time movie."
