But after 15 years together, for reasons they do not at first understand, their marriage and their lives begin to unravel in the drama SHOOT THE MOON. From director Alan Parker (Angela's Ashes, Mississippi Burning, Midnight Express) and Academy Award-winning screenwriter Bo Goldman (Scent of a Woman, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest), comes this story of a marriage coming apart. Over the years, George and Faith Dunlap (Finney - Big Fish, Erin Brockovich and Keaton - Something's Gotta Give) have grown up and grown apart. Now, George wants to leave Faith to live with his girlfriend (Karen Allen - In the Bedroom, Raiders of the Lost Ark) but he refuses to let go of his wife and children, even as Faith begins an affair of her own with Frank Henderson (Peter Weller - Robocop).
Azazel Jacobs writes: "A writer sharpens his pencils, gets a home with beachfront views, blows up his family life, then stares at a blank page. A somewhat recent discovery for me, that left me astounded and wishing I could see it in the theater. Remarkable performances, fearless filmmaking."
