The Visitor
Directed by Thomas McCarthy
With Richard Jenkins, Haaz Sleiman
USA, 2007, 103 minutes, PG-13.

62-year-old Walter is a disillusioned, disconnected, widowed Connecticut college professor sleepwalking
through his life. When he discovers that a young, undocumented couple have taken up residence in his
rarely used Manhattan pied-a-terre, he is dubious but reluctantly allows them to stay. By opening his world
to strangers, Walter discovers a vibrant new culture, and his own verve for life and its infinite possibilities.

“A heartfelt human drama that sneaks up and floors you” - Peter Travers, Rolling Stone Magazine

“A marvelous film. The Visitor will make you think, and feel, and care about the world you live in. - Rex Reed, New York Observer

Then She Found Me
Directed by Helen Hunt
With Helen Hunt, Colin Firth, Bette Midler, Matthew
Broderick
USA, 2007, 100 minutes, rated for language and some
sexual content

Everything hits the fan simultaneously for April, a New York schoolteacher who feels her biological clock
ticking: her marriage dissolves, her adoptive mother dies and her biological mother, a talk show host whose
a real piece of work materializes; at this most inopportune time, she also begins to fall for the
father of one of her students. A fresh exploration of people realistically finding their way.

“Then She Found Me, a serious comedy, is more impressive for what it refuses to do than for its
modest accomplishment. The directorial debut of Helen Hunt, who plays April Epner, an anxious 39-year-old kindergarten teacher in New York City, it has all the ingredients of a slick, commercial farce, which it emphatically is not.” – Stephen Holden, The New York Times

Priceless
Directed by Pierre Salvadori
With Audrey Tautou, Desson Thomson
France, 2006, 104 minutes, in French with English
subtitles, rated PG-13 for sexual content including
nudity

Jean is a hardworking employee at one of the French Riviera’s chi-chi hotels; a chance encounter with
Irene, a gorgeous young woman vacationing with her Sugar Daddy, turns his predictable and solid world
around, and he begins to play her high-stakes “game”. The film winks at the vanity of both the ultra-rich
and the attractive hustlers who play games of tainted love, all without judging them.

“Tautou is a delight, as always, using her bubbly personality to comic advantage. And Elmaleh makes for a sort of poor man's Buster Keaton, perpetually stressed but refusing to surrender, no matter how much damage he sustains to himself or his wallet.” – Desson Thomson, The Washington Post
