R.S.V.P.
An old-fashioned yet irreverent comedy romp by writer/director Mark Anthony Galluzzo, “R.S.V.P.” cleverly mixes the spirit of Frank Capra’s “Arsenic and Old Lace” with Alfred Hitchcock’s “Rope”. Set in the heart of sin city itself, Las Vegas, Nevada, “R.S.V.P.” follows a group of twenty-something’s on their last – and we do mean last – night of collegiate bliss. Co-Stars include, Majandra Delfino ("Roswell," "Traffic"), Reno Wilson ("The Chronicle"), Grace Zabriskie ("Wild at Heart," "Trash"), Jonathan Banks ("Wiseguy," "Trash"), Glen Quinn ("Angel"), and breakout performances by New Yorker Daniel Joseph and newcomer Nora Zehtner. To date no one knows Jay’s whereabouts and repeated efforts by his roommate have failed to track him down as well. In a radio interview on Tuesday director Galluzzo commented, “Jay is kind of a known quantity when you hire him so you don’t get worried when he flakes for a few days, but it’s been almost three weeks since he has returned any calls, and we really are at the point that we’d just like him to let us know he’s okay. Whatever is going on with Jersey is not going to be helped by hiding and it’s just making us all nervous about his health and well being.”

The Radio Mechanics
Nigel Starr is a late-night talk show radio host for the extraordinary and bizarre. But on this night he receives a call from frayed research scientist, Stillman, who is convinced that aliens have found a way to unleash destruction via the radio airwaves and an ad Nigel is to run during the course of his show that night. How do aliens plan to do this? Through Alternative Reality Flooding, of course! Will Nigel buy into Stillman's theories or is he just another quack? Will he run the ad at 2:48 am? Will he be the "unwitting gatekeeper with the magical key to unleash the dogs of ultimate destruction"? And just what is A.R.F. anyway? For the answer to these and other mankind-saving questions, you'll have to tune-in yourself.

They survive one of the most powerful storms in recorded history, but James, his wife Tracy, their seven-year-old son and two-year-old daughter soon find themselves in a horrible dilemma. With only minimal supplies in hand, they had thought they would be returning home after the storm to make minor repairs and get on with their lives.

Requiem for a Dream
This incredible site for Darren Aronofsky's film, "Requiem for a Dream," is less marketing device and more an extension of the film's highly visceral and disturbing aesthetic. Full of intentional glitches, error messages, fake sites within the site (Slim-n-Happy.com and TappyTibbons.com, for instance), "Requiem" -- designed by the U.K.-based collective hi,Res! -- is one of the most innovative filmsites on the Web. "Most people go to the Internet for their 30 seconds of information and then they're gone," says Arononfsky. This site "is not that kind of experience. It's more like 'Myst'. It's a landscape you have to explore."

Road Trip Nation
Michael Mariner and Nathan Gebhard's grassroots documentary shares stories from their '01 Roadtrip, in which they toured the country for 15,000 miles in an old, bright-green 1984 RV. On that adventure they met with leaders from all walks of life to simply learn how they got to where they are today. "The documentary juxtaposes the dreams and aspirations of the students who joined us on the road in their local areas against the Open Roads of the leaders with whom we spoke. It will show how the director of Saturday Night Live started as a personal assistant at MTV, how Michael Dell dropped out of college to start Dell Computers, how the Chairman of Starbucks found his passion in Italian espresso bars, how a POW with a doctorate discovered his Open Road to becoming a mechanic, and how the top shoe designer at Nike went from studying architecture in college to building Michael Jordan's shoes. After 15,000 miles, 43 states, and 82 interviews, we learned that just like us, these leaders were once as lost as we are now. The one constant was not a 4.0 GPA, perfect SATs, or an MBA from Harvard. It was that each and every one of these leaders not only followed what lit them up, they all learned to listen to the only people that matter: themselves."
