From Alexander Payne, the creator of the Oscar-winning SIDEWAYS, set in Hawaii, THE DESCENDANTS is a sometimes humorous, sometimes tragic journey for Matt King (George Clooney) an indifferent husband and father of two girls, who is forced to re-examine his past and embrace his future when his wife suffers a boating accident off of Waikiki. The event leads to a rapprochement with his young daughters while Matt wrestles with a decision to sell the family’s land handed down from Hawaiian royalty and missionaries. (Source)

Haunted by memories of his ex-girlfriend Alice (Beau Garrett), a heartbroken Billy (Nick Stahl) returns home to Northern Virginia seeking solace from old friends. But what he finds there is more disconcerting than comforting: his best friend Stanley (Jonathan Jackson) has become unstable, mysterious, and withdrawn from those around him. Billy teams up with another old friend, Stanley’s roommate Christian (Christopher M. Clark), to find out what’s going on, and as they probe Stanley’s recent activities, their friend’s behavior seems more and more bizarre and frightening. The discovery of blood-stained evidence among Stanley’s possessions pulls them deeper into their friend’s nightmare–and eventually leads to a violent confrontation that not everyone will survive. (
When the Millers’ homeless father died alone in a jail cell, the twins vowed that their autobiographical film, Touching Home, would be made as a dedication to their love for him. Three months after their father’s death, the Miller brothers cornered four—time Academy Award—nominee Ed Harris in a San Francisco alley and asked him to play the role of their father in Touching Home. Ed Harris said “yes”, and the miracle that would become Touching Home, became a reality. Without a dime to their names, nor a single meaningful contact in Hollywood, Logan and Noah Miller managed to write, produce, and direct a feature film with a cast and crew that has 11 Academy Awards and 26 nominations. Touching Home, directed, written, produced and starring Logan and Noah Miller, is the true story about a father struggling to make amends with his twin sons as they pursue their dreams of professional baseball. Based on The HarperCollins paperback release of Either You’re In or You’re in the Way, the #1 National Bestselling memoir by Logan and Noah Miller, the film stars Ed Harris, Brad Dourif, Robert Forster, Lee Meriwether, Evan Jones, and Ishiah Benben.
