Alda, Broderick, Baseball Cards: Can’t Miss Flick?
The new film ‘Diminished Capacity’ is set to be released next month. It brings two Hollywood favorites together on screen–where they go to a show try to sell a rare baseball card. We’ve got the sneak peek, which includes a little violence against a particularly nasty dealer.
It was shown at the Sundance Film Festival back in January, but the new Matthew Broderick/Alan Alda movie has yet to hit the big screen.
That will change July 4 when the film is set for a limited release in theaters. Here’s the info from the studio–including the movie trailer (see below).
Director Terry Kinney’s delightfully poignant and bittersweet comedy poses the question: How much is a good memory worth?
That’s the question that faces newspaper editor Cooper (Matthew Broderick) after a debilitating concussion takes him from the political pages to comic strip detail. Looking for answers, he travels home to Missouri where his now senile Uncle Rollie (Alan Alda) is on the verge of losing his home.
When a valuable baseball card is thrown into the mix, these two men along with a motley group of hometown friends, including Cooper’s high school sweetheart, Charlotte (Virginia Madsen) , head to a sports memorabilia show to make the deal of a century, diving headfirst into a snakepit of slick salesmen, crooked dealers, and rabid fans revealing that there are some things in life that you can’t put a price on.
