It was written by Thomas Moffett, directed by Jonas Pate (who’s mostly helmed episodes of TV shows) and is headlined by two-time Oscar winner Kevin Spacey. The cast also features Jesse Plemons (Friday Night Lights), Saffron Burrows, Dallas Roberts (A Home At the End of the World), Mark Webber and there’s even a brief appearance by Robin Williams. – [DVD]
