American Beauty’s Wes Bentley and Good Will Hunting’s Casey Affleck head up an eye-catching young cast in Soul Survivors, an eerie thriller about a college freshman who is suspended between life and death after a devastating car accident. Soul Survivors also stars Eliza Dushku, Angela Featherstone, Melissa Sagemiller and Luke Wilson.
Director Wayne Wang creates a steamy portrait of love and sex in the technological age with The Center of the World, an erotic drama about a young computer wizard (Peter Sarsgaard, Boys Don’t Cry) whose immersion in the digital world has left him unaccustomed to normal social interaction. When he persuades a beautiful stripper (Molly Parker, Kissed) to spend three days with him in Las Vegas, their arrangement becomes a journey into the dark secrets of their sexuality. Shot on digital video, the film reunites Wang with Smoke and Blue in the Face collaborator Paul Auster, who co-wrote the script with his wife, author Siri Hustvedt.
