'THE ANSWER MAN' Starring Jeff Daniels and Lauren Graham to Premiere as a Sneak Preview on HDNet Movies


Film to Premiere Wednesday, July 22 at 8:00 p.m. ET - Two Days Prior to its National Theatrical Release


HDNet Movies presents a special Sneak Preview of the movie THE ANSWER MAN, starring Jeff Daniels (The Squid and the Whale), Lauren Graham (Gilmore Girls) and Lou Taylor Pucci (Thumbsucker), Wednesday, July 22 at 8:00 p.m. ET.



Critics are raving about THE ANSWER MAN. Pete Hammond of BOXOFFICE MAGAZINE calls the film, "A sparkling, wickedly funny comedy. Jeff Daniels is outstanding. For those looking for smart, sharp, witty filmmaking, here's your answer!" Michael Musto of THE VILLAGE VOICE says, "Jeff Daniels and Lauren Graham are delightful in this thought provoking rom-com," and Steven Farber calls THE ANSWER MAN, "A warm and witty comedy with characters that come alive, thanks to splendid performances by Jeff Daniels, Lauren Graham and Lou Taylor Pucci."


From first-time director John Hindman, comes this romantic comedy about Arlen Faber (Daniels), the reclusive author of "Me and God," a book that has redefined spirituality for an entire generation and has been translated into over 100 languages.


On the eve of the 20th anniversary of his still wildly popular book, Arlen is still sought after as the man who has all the answers. Arlen's life collides with Elizabeth (Graham), a single mom raising her seven year-old son, and Kris (Taylor Pucci), a young man fresh out of rehab who is searching for meaning. Both Elizabeth and Kris are hopeful that Arlen has the answers, but the truth is, he hasn't got a clue.


The film also stars Kat Dennings (Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist) and Olivia Thirlby (Juno).


THE ANSWER MAN is the latest installment in the HDNet Movies "Sneak Preview" series. Only HDNet Movies presents exclusive "Sneak Previews" of films to viewers before they premiere in theaters. All Sneak Preview films are free to HDNet Movies subscribers.


HDNet Movies will offer THE ANSWER MAN as a special Sneak Preview on Wednesday, July 22 at 8:00 p.m. ET, with encore presentations at 9:45 and 11:30 p.m. ET that same evening.

Would have loved to watch. Except something insurmountable apparently developed between my source, Time Warner Cable, and HDNet, causing TWC to drop HDNet. Maybe if you both start from zero again with all new negotiators.... -- John

Did anyone see this?

I watched it, I liked it pretty well. I thought it was one of the better sneak peeks on HDNet. I was always a Gilmore Girls fan and Lauren Graham seemed to be in her element in this movie. I thought the ending was kinda uneventful, but all in all I enjoyed the movie.

Nope, I missed it. I forgot to program the event on the DVR.

I had car troubles that day, so I was not able to sit down and watch the film.

Oh well.

I did remember to record it. Car was working OK, but the routine service required light came on. Other priorities are preventing me from watching this movie until this weekend or next weekend.
