Synopsis

Ray Bradstone is "the best wheel man in the business" - the bank robbery business, that is. Just out of prison, he is determined to go straight and be the best parent he can be to his daughter, Sally, and make amends with his ex-wife, Lynne. After trying everything he can do to re-connect with his family and struggling in vain to find honest work, his old bank-robbing crew, led by Phillip Larue, offers him one last job. He signs on as their getaway driver - only to change his mind at the last second. What prompts this change of heart is an opportunity: Sally is going on a class trip to the New Orleans Natural History Museum and Ray has been asked to be the chaperone. It’s his last chance to be the father he always wanted to be. Sally and her class are in for one of the craziest field trips ever.

This Weekend Could Be Murder on Limited Releases

February 18th, 2011

It's really hard to find many limited releases that are earning more than 80% positive reviews, which is usually the level needed to thrive in limited release. There are several that are on the bubble, but it could be really hard for any of them to find breakout success. There are a few that are earning a lot of positive buzz, including Small Town Murder Songs, but I really don't think any will thrive. More...
