Moon Pilot

Comedy

Strap in for a rollicking ride to the early days of space travel, and lift off with comedy at the controls. After Charley the chimp successfully orbits the moon, it's a space race against time as a reluctant volunteer (Tom Tryon) becomes next in line. The fiercely organized plans of his mission director (Brian Keith) go hysterically awry when a beautiful "spy" appears. She has a vital -- and quite unearthly -- bit of information that could save the mission from failure, but the authorities quickly launch their own project -- an elaborate plan to keep astronaut and spy worlds apart. The result is out-of-this-world laughs for all!

A Midwinter's Tale

Comedy

To be or not to be? To act or not to act? The questions are the same to Joe, a struggling (read: jobless) actor whose every sinew and synapse cries out to perform and to soften the blow of not landing a part in a megabudget sci-fi movie. So in the stalwart (read: desperate) tradition of actors everywhere, Joe vows to put on a show, a special (read: even more desperate) version of the greatest play in the English tongue. Writer/director Kenneth Branagh serves up Hamlet on wry with this salute to dyed-in-the-wool and other woolly-brained thespians. Michael Maloney (Truly Madly Deeply) portrays Joe, maxing out credit cards and his wits to realize his dream. Does he succeed? Well, with Richard Briers (Branagh's Hamlet), Joan Collins (Dynasty), Nicholas Farrell (Chariots of Fire), Absolutely Fabulous alumna Jennifer Saunders and Julia Sawatha and more joining Maloney, one thing's certain. The show must go on!

He thought he’d have some time to figure it out during the summer, but his over-the-top guidance counselor has ulterior motives and is aggressively pushing Danny to attend college, while his tough, blue collar father insists Danny follow in his footsteps and work at the local factory. To help ease the pressures from reality, Danny’s buddies whisk him away to Trout Camp, the annual rite-of-passage party. When it gets busted, Danny frantically runs from the police, and in the chaos falls down an embankment, knocking himself unconscious. When he comes to, he is staring into the beautiful smile of Alison. Is he dreaming, or has Danny discovered Goddess Camp – the urban legend of “skinny-dipping chicks” that so many horny high-school boys have searched for and fantasized about for years? Danny falls hard for Alison as she nurses him back to health and helps him discover the strength he needs to take charge of his own destiny. Pitching Tents will make you laugh at things you’ll remember, gasp at things you’ve never seen… and give you a lump in your throat when its honesty hits home.
