DVD. Feature film. Stars Sam Rockwell & Kathleen Quinlan. R ated R. Mischa Barton makes a sparkling screen debut in this fresh and lively urban fairy tale. Barton plays Devon, a new transplant, along with her uptight parents, to the even more uptight suburbian utopia of Camelot Gardens, a closed-in, upper-class neighborhood that might be anywhere in America. The highly imaginative ten-year-old has no friends, and instead lives through her fantasies. Yet, when she travels outside the walls of the Gardens and ends up at the trailer of Trent Burns (Sam Rockwell), a poor eccentric who mows her family's lawn, a friendship blossoms. When tragedy strikes the dog of a local bully, their secret relationship is made public and the community explodes. Rockwell gives a thoroughly funny, engaging performance as the outcast Trent, and makes his bond with the younger Devon seem honest, heartfelt, and beautiful. LAWN DOGS is a thoughtful and heartwarming tale of a friendship that defies the rules of class or age. Youngster Devon (Mischa Barton) is transplanted by her parents into an uptight gated community, Camelot Gardens. The lonely and imaginative ten-year-old girl escapes the confines of her new "community" and makes friends with an isolated eccentric, Trent (Sam Rockwell), who lives in a trailer on the outskirts of town. Trent mows the lawns of Devon's family and is looked down upon by the upper-class denizens of Camelot Gardens. When their secret friendship is revealed the community explodes, unable to understand the innocent bond between the two outcasts.

Lawn Dogs Reviews: "...[A] pointedly whimsical film....[It] shows off a poised young actress and a leading man with charisma to burn..."
-- Janet Maslin, New York Times "...Duigan reveals the truth and humor of growing up in a sheltered, unforgiving suburbia..."-- Christine Spines, Premiere "...Beguilingly offbeat....Rockwell emerges as a compelling actor..."

Lawn Dogs Is A Fun Movie. I really enjoyed Lawn Dogs about a 10 year old girl who becomes secret friends with a 21 year old boy. I love watching Mischa Barton in movies. A few of Her sceans was weird and funny such as, putting a toy gun in a little boys mouth and telling him that he would be doing the community a favor, peeing on her dad's car windshield and smearing it with the wippers, killing a chicken, running over a dog with her friend Trent in the truck and killing it, Shooting a man in the gun with her dads gun, and pointing the gun at her dad and threating to shoot him. I am proud of this movie. It was filmed in my home state, Kentucky and I know everyone will love Lawn Dogs too.

"Some names have been changed to protect the guilty." Such is the cheeky spirit of THE BANK JOB, a solidly entertaining British heist film based on England's famous walkie-talkie bank job. The year is 1971 and Michael X--emerging black activist and budding crime lord--has British authorities over a barrel after he gets hold of sexually incriminating photos of royal Princess Margaret. Desperate to recover the photos, the government pressures troubled model Martine Love (Saffron Burrows) to recruit a team and steal the bank safety deposit box containing the photos. Martine promptly enlists small-time con man and old flame Terry Leather (Jason Statham), luring him and his crew with the promise of millions. But also in their loot is a ledger detailing payoffs made to crooked cops by reputed gangster Porn King Vogel (David Suchet). Leather and mates soon find themselves on the run from both the British spy community and the ruthless British underworld, needing to stay one step ahead if they are to stay alive. ...
