Jennifer Coolidge, Ed Harris, Gabrielle Union, Lewis Pullman, Miles J. Harvey and Emanuela Postacchini also star. Bill Murray, Ed Harris, Gabrielle Union, Miles J. Harvey, Emanuela Postacchini, director Dito Montiel, and writer John Pollono all walked the red carpet this morning, opening TIFF’s final week.

Log-line: A former criminal's ordinary life, which is turned upside down when his old family shows up for a long-awaited reunion.

Current sales for the film are being handled by Signature Entertainment, while Capstone handles North America and Roadside Attractions for a domestic release.

TIFF’s description for the film states: One-time criminal Vince (Harris) turned his life around when he fell in love with Sandy (Union). Nearly 20 years later, the still-happy couple are looking forward to spending a quiet New Year’s Eve in their country home with their good-natured son, DJ (Miles J. Harvey). Then Vince’s other son, Rocco (Lewis Pullman), shows up unannounced with his pregnant girlfriend, Marina (Emanuela Postacchini), and Vince’s first wife, Ruth (Coolidge), in tow. It is not a happy reunion. Ruth is rude, lewd, and randy, while Rocco — who never divested himself of the family business — is clearly hiding something sinister. Hot on Rocco’s tail is Lefty (Bill Murray), an aging mafioso with a score to settle regarding his own son. When Lefty catches up with Vince’s teeming clan, it seems likely that blood ties will yield blood spilled” (by JANE SCHOETTLE).
