THE LOOKOUT

Critically Acclaimed Bank Heist Thriller Includes “Behind the Mind of Chris Pratt” and
More Intense Bonus Features on DVD and Blu-ray Disc® August 14th

Bust open the vault for the August 14th DVD and Blu-ray Disc debut of The Lookout, Miramax Home Entertainment’s critically-acclaimed bank heist thriller starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Jeff Daniels. This “haunting and hypnotic film” (according to Rolling Stone) comes with knockout bonus features including “Behind the Mind of Chris Pratt”.

The Lookout stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt (TV’s “3rd Rock From the Sun,” “Brick”) as Chris Pratt, a once-proud high school hockey standout whose short-term memory fades away following a brutal car crash. With his best days behind him, Chris toils as a nighttime janitor at a local bank until a group of crooks seduce him into carrying out their heist plans.

The Lookout boasts an eclectic cast of characters that highlight the suspenseful story. Veteran film, TV and Broadway star Jeff Daniels (“Good Night, and Good Luck”, “The Squid and the Whale”) plays Chris’ sardonic, blind roommate with a dark past. Up-and-coming starlet Isla Fisher (“Wedding Crashers”) employs her considerable charms to lure Chris into the gang, which is led by Gary, played by Matthew Goode (“Match Point”).

Bonus features include “Behind the Mind of Chris Pratt”, an exploration of Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s intense portrayal of the lead character, the “Sequencing The Lookout“ making-of featurette, and audio commentaries from filmmaker Scott Frank and cinematographer Alar Kivilo (“The Lake House”). The Lookout sees Scott Frank making his directorial debut. Frank garnered a Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar® nomination for Steven Soderbergh’s 1998 caper “Out of Sight.”

The Lookout DVD is priced at $29.99 in and the Blu-ray Disc is priced at $34.99.
