From Anchor Bay Entertainment, SOLITARY MAN Blu-ray will be released in store everywhere starting September 7, 2010.
Michael Douglas always seems to be at his best when he's playing his dark side, and in SOLITARY MAN, his character is in total self-destruct mode.
The divorced, sixty-year-old, once super-successful car magnate is not only on the verge of bankruptcy, but he's also on shaky ground with his grown daughter (Jenna Fischer) and her family. People do try to throw him a lifeline, but then he does something very stupid, primarily letting his "little head" rule his "big head," and he sinks even deeper into the mire. Indeed, he's like a train wreck, painful to watch but impossible to turn away.
Directed by writer Brian Koppelman and David Levien, this fine film co-stars Susan Sarandon as Douglas' former wife, Mary-Louise Parker as his current girl friend, plus Jesse Eisenberg and Danny DeVito.
