Larry Crowne Until he was downsized, the affable amiable Larry
Crowne was a superstar team leader at the big-box com- pany where he worked since his time in the Navy. Under- water on his mortgage and unclear on what to do with his suddenly free days, Larry heads to his local college to start over. There he becomes part of a colorful com- munity of outcasts and the overlooked all trying to find a better future for themselves... often zipping about town as a herd on scooters. In his public-speaking class, Larry develops an unexpected crush on his teacher Mercedes Tainot, who has lost as much passion for teaching as she has for her husband. The simple guy who has every reason to think his life has stalled comes to learn an unexpected lesson: when you think everything worth having has passed you by, you just might discover your reason to live.

Monte Carlo While on a trip to Paris with her best friend and
soon-to-be-stepsister, Grace is mistaken for a British socialite, resulting in all three young women flying to Monte Carlo for a charity ball, auction and the chance for international romance.

Crazy, Stupid, Love. At 40-something, straight-laced Cal Weaver is living
the dream—a good job, nice house, great kids and marriage to his high school sweetheart. But when Cal learns that his wife, Emily, has cheated on him and wants a divorce, his perfect life quickly unravels. Worse, in today’s single world, Cal, who hasn’t dated in decades, stands out as the epitome of un-smooth. Now spending his free evenings sulking alone at a local bar, the hapless Cal is taken on as wingman and protégé to handsome, 30-something player Jacob Palmer. In an effort to help Cal get over his wife and start living his life, Jacob opens Cal’s eyes to the many options before him: flirty women, manly drinks and a sense of style that can’t be found at Supercuts or The Gap. Cal and Emily aren’t the only ones looking for love in what might be all the wrong places: Cal’s 13-year-old son, Robbie, is crazy about his 17-year- old babysitter, Jessica, who harbors a crush on Cal. Despite Cal’s makeover and his many new conquests, the one thing that can’t be made over is his heart, which seems to keep leading him back to where he began. Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, Julianne Moore, Emma Stone Friday, July 29
ART/FOREIGN DRAMA ADAPTATION AND BIOPIC
The Devil’s Double Summoned from the frontline to Saddam Hussein’s
palace, Iraqi army lieutenant Latif Yahia is thrust into the highest echelons of the “royal family” when he’s ordered to become the “fiday” —or body double—to Saddam’s son, the notorious “Black Prince” Uday Hus- sein, a reckless, sadistic party-boy with a rabid hunger for sex and brutality. With his and his family’s lives at stake, Latif must surrender his former self forever as he learns to walk, talk and act like Uday. But nothing could have prepared him for the horror of the Black Prince’s psychotic, drug-addled life of fast cars, easy women and impulsive violence. With one wrong move costing him his life, Latif forges an intimate bond with Sarrab, Uday’s seductive mistress who’s haunted by her own secrets. But as war looms with Kuwait and Uday’s depraved gangster regime threatens to destroy them all, Latif realizes that escape from the devil’s den will only come at the highest possible cost. Dominic Cooper, Ludivine Sagnier, Mimoun Oaissa Friday, July 29
