Movie Story


Wound tight and cocky, Jimmy Starks (Guy Pearce) is a smooth-talking salesman certain he's on the verge of a big break. Even when his car stalls in the middle of nowhere, a roadside soothsayer (J.K. Simmons) assures him a windfall is on its way. But although Jimmy should be happy when his boss suddenly agrees to financially back his business venture, he starts to become paranoid instead.

As his girlfriend Deirdre (Piper Perabo) and his best friend/ business partner Ed (William Fichtner) watch him slowly come unwound, Jimmy wonders if a past betrayal of his friend, newly paroled Vince (Shea Whigham), could be catching up to him. And, as the weather turns cold, Jimmy can't help but fear the mysterious seer's other prediction... that they'll be no tomorrow after the first snow.

MOVIE REVIEWS BY CRITICS

“..unnerving, absorbing psychological thriller..”
by Rob Lowman [L.A. Daily News]
“..standard-issue drama with an off-the-wall climactic scene that trashes all attempts at credibility..”
by Harvey S. Karten [CompuServe]
“..an alternately witty and dull psychological thriller intriguingly lacking in suspense..”
by Kristi Mitsuda [indieWIRE]
