The opening scenes present a bounty of puppies so unbearably cute, they'll elicit a chorus of coos from even the stoniest audience. The movie's hero is a Labrador named Quill who undergoes the most demanding training regimen seen on screen since the 36th Chamber of Shaolin. Smart, diligent and charming, he wins the affection of his stern trainer, Tawada, and his grumpy blind handler. Audiences are just as unlikely to resist him in Yoichi Sai's simply rendered and indisputably sweet film." - Jason Anderson, EYE Magazine.

DIRECTOR: Margarethe von Trotta KEY CAST: Katja Reinmann, Maria Schrader, Martin Feifel RELEASE DATE: NOW AVAILABLE SOURCE: Samuel Goldwyn            TITLE: THE SQUID AND THE WHALE SYNOPSIS: Writer-director Noah Baumbach earned the 2005 Best Dramatic Directing Award as well as the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at this year's Sundance Film Festival for his heartfelt film about a family splintered by divorce. Anchored by an uncompromising performance by Jeff Daniels as the family patriarch, THE SQUID AND THE WHALE also stars Laura Linney, Jesse Eisenberg and Owen Kline. The film captures with extraordinary immediacy the inner workings of the Berkman family in 1986 Brooklyn. Bernard (Jeff Daniels), an academic and author, and his restless wife Joan, (Laura Linney) an up-and-coming writer, have given up on their marriage. Their two sons Walt (Jesse Eisenberg), 16, and Frank (Owen Kline), 12, are left to grapple with their confusing and conflicted feelings. The experience is a tender, funny and ultimately moving coming-of-age for Walt and a tortuously premature one for Frank. The emotional tensions and strains that emerge during this difficult period for the Berkmans are given a remarkably subtle and nuanced portrayal as a family in transition learns to redefine itself. DIRECTOR: Noah Baumbach KEY CAST: Laura Linney, Jeff Daniels, William Baldwin, Jesse Eisenberg, Owen Kline, Anna Paquin RELEASE DATE: Available on DVD SOURCE: Samuel Goldwyn / Roadside Attractions ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: ACADEMY AWARD NOMINATION, Best Original Screenplay         Click here for more Capri Releasing films.
