WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW
DESCRIPTION:
Push a red button on a little
black box, get a million bucks cash. Just like that, all of Norma and Arthur
Lewis's financial problems will be over. But there's a catch, according
to the strange visitor (Frank Langella) who placed the box on the couple's
doorstep. Someone somewhere - someone they don't know - will die.
Cameron Diaz and James Marsden play
a couple confronted by agonizing temptation yet unaware they're already
part of an orchestrated and - for them and us - mind blowing chain of events.
"Somebody pushing your buttons?" a woman asks. From filmmaker Richard Kelly
(Donnie Darko and a short story by Richard Matheson (I Am Legend)
comes a gripping sci-fi mystery thriller that pushes 'em right.
