$19.99 Suggested Retail Price

A dark comedy about a man who is incapable of establishing a normal human relationship, having abandoned his dysfunctional family of geniuses thirty years ago, returns to reconcile and naturally, fails miserably. An all-star cast including Gene Hackman, Angelica Houston, Ben Stiller, Gwyneth Paltrow, Danny Glover, and Luke Wilson. The Criterion Collection DVD set includes a host of theatrical trailers, a "making of" documentary, interviews with the cast, and a collection of design art for the movie (which is much more interesting than it sounds here).
