Closed Captioned; Standard Screen; Soundtrack English Beau Bridges stars in this black comedy that spoofs media manipulation, tabloid sensationalism, and the business of politics in this dark vision of a not-so-futuristic America. With a planeload of immigrant Pakastani orphans heading to his state for permanent relocation, the Governor of Idaho (Bridges) decides to defy the President (Phil Hartman) and close the state's border. News Net Television, a CNN-like cable news program that dominates the race for ratings by reporting on every possible political scandal or upset, quickly becomes involved and spins the racist act into an overnight media sensation, creating a divide in national opinion of both the Governor and the President. With a nervous country looking on--and the Governor romancing a NewsNet reporter (Leslie Pena) who's covering the story--it looks like Idaho may just start the second Civil War. THE SECOND CIVIL WAR is an original comedy from HBO. Television release: March 15, 1997.
Beau Bridges won an Emmy award for his role as the Jim Farley, the Governor of Idaho.

The title refers to the night when three men, Randy (Matt Dillon), his cousin Carl (Paul Reiser) and Detective Dehling (John Goodman), all meet Jewel Valentine (Liv Tyler) at a bar called McCool's. Actually, they don't so much meet her as fall under her spell when they first lay eyes on her. In her clinging red dress she looks like a cross between a beautiful damsel in distress and the Lady In Red looking for John Dillinger. The story begins with Randy, desperate to be rid of Jewel, hiring a sleazy hitman, played by Michael Douglas in an outré toupee. His story of how Jewel led him to ruin, filmed in a stylized flashback bathed in blue, is mirrored by Carl talking to his therapist--played with a delicious verve by Reba McEntire, and Detective Dehling talking with a priest; ...

Blake Edwards's return to the male-in-meltdown territory he explored in 10 and THAT'S LIFE stars John Ritter as unemployed writer Zach, who is not only suffering from writer's block, but his drinking is out of control, as is his obsessive womanizing, and, not surprisingly, his wife wants to end their marriage. To add to his problems, his house has just burned down, and his agent is knocking at death's door. But since this is a Blake Edwards comedy, Zach has enough charm and relative affluence to continue his pursuits, which the director regards with a bemused deatchment. One of his girlfriends sets his piano on fire, and another gets him to ...

Similar to SHREK and THE PRINCESS BRIDE, this fantasy adventure, based on a book by Gail Carson Levine, combines fairy tale with sly, 21st century pop humor. Teenage Ella (THE PRINCESS DIARIES' Anne Hathaway) lives in Frell, a magical place where humans, fairies, ogres, and other mythical folk peacefully coexist. However, when power-mad Prince Regent Edgar (Cary Elwes) passes laws that segregate humans from everyone else, Ella becomes determined to win equal rights for all. This task presents a challenge for anyone, but especially for Ella, who at birth was given the dubious gift of obedience by Lucinda (Vivica A. Fox), a fairy with an attitude. When she finds an ally, and love interest, in the almost-king Prince Charmont (Hugh Dancy), she invokes the ire of her witchy stepsister Hattie (Lucy Punch), who has figured out that Ella must obey any command. Between avoiding her stepsister, trying to break the spell, and restoring justice to the kingdom, will Ella find time for true love?

In JUST MY LUCK, an old-fashioned film about love and destiny, Lindsay Lohan proves yet again why she is such a movie star. Like the starlets of years past, husky-voiced, sparkle-eyed Lohan has a magnetism that makes her deliciously present on the big screen. In this film by the seasoned romantic-comedy director Donald Petrie (HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS, MYSTIC PIZZA), the star plays Ashley, a sexy New York socialite who is known to be possessed of amazing luck. Wealthy men flock to her, designer clothes fall into her lap free of charge, and she has never struggled for a moment in her life. One night, at a masquerade party, she shares a dancefloor smooch with hunky Jake (Chris Pine), a charming fellow who has lost every coin toss of his life. As they kiss, the two somehow also swap destinies, and unlucky Jake is suddenly blessed with the charmed existence Ashley abruptly finds herself without. As Ashley finds herself falling into puddles, sitting in paint, rapidly falling off the corporate ladder, and being rejected by a long line of men, Jake begins to win money, get girls, and become a successful rock music manager. Ashley's luck, of course, is ...
