WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW
DESCRIPTION:
A plane crash in the freezing
Alaskan wilderness pits intellectual billionaire Charles Morse (Anthony
Hopkins) against self-satisfied fashion photographer Robert Green (alec
Baldwin) in a brutal struggle for survival. Each soon discovers that the
greatest danger resides not in danger, but from human fear, treachery,
and quite possibly murder.
This "nerve-racking adventure" (Janet
Maslin, New York Times) filled with non-stop action and "gripping
suspense" (David Ansen, Newsweek), is a harrowing tale from one
of America's leading screenwriters, David Mamet (The Untouchables,
Glengarry
Glen Ross).
