A teenager tackles the mysteries of life, love and public speaking in Rocket Science, a wry comedy of adolescent angst by Jeffrey Blitz, director of the Academy Award-nominated documentary Spellbound. Life is not easy for teenager Hal Hefner (Reece Daniel Thompson: Bloodworth) of suburban Plainsboro, New Jersey. His parents, Juliet (Lisbeth Bartlett) and Doyle (Denis O'Hare), have abruptly split; his older brother, Earl (Vincent Piazza: The Sopranos) is a budding obsessive compulsive who pushes him around; and he has an unpredictable stutter that makes high school an exercise in embarrassment and self-effacement. But when the hyper-articulate Ginny Ryerson (Anna Kendrick: Up In the Air), asks Hal to join her debating team, his life changes in an instant. Trundling back and forth to her house with his ever-growing pile of research, Hal starts to see new possibilities in his life. Perhaps he can tame his stutter and become a master of rhetoric. Perhaps he can succeed in love - where so many, including his parents, have failed - and win Ginny's heart. Mixing humour with a compassionate regard for his characters and their idiosyncrasies, Blitz leaves behind the conventions and cliches of coming-of-age tales to create a film about the little insights that can emerge from, and ultimately eclipse, the agonies and disappointments of youth.

BASED ON A STORY BY PHILIP K. DICK, the legendary science fiction writer whose books have inspired Blade Runner and Minority Report. The year is 2079. Earth has been at war with an unstoppable alien force for over a decade and cloning, memory manipulation, genetic engineering, implanted simcodes and 24/7 surveillance are part of everyday life. But one man has made a technological breakthrough that could save the world from imminent apocalypse - Spencer Olham (Gary Sinise). But suddenly, Olham is accused of being an impostor- an alien spy in the guise of a simulated human; and mercenary operator D.H. Hathaway (Vincent D?Onofrio) believes this cyborg must be hunted down and destroyed. Like The Matrix before it, IMPOSTOR is a new breed of science fiction- where awesome special effects illuminate and question the provocative themes of paranoia, identity and the enemy within.
