PAUL GIAMATTI AND AMY RYAN ENCHANT
IN THIS NO HOLDS BARRED DARK COMEDY


There Are No Losers as Two Down and Out Guys Wrestle Their Way to Happiness in WIN WIN Coming to Blu-ray & DVD August 23


Laugh, cry and win when WIN WIN comes to Blu-ray and DVD on August 23, 2011 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. WIN WIN is not just another sports movie; the unconventionally uplifting film combines action on the mat with the hilarious highs and heartbreaking lows of a new kind of family. Indie film writer-director Tom McCarthy (The Visitor) guides a celebrated cast including Academy Award® nominees Paul Giamatti (Sideways, “John Adams”), Amy Ryan (Gone Baby Gone) and high school wrestling star and newcomer Alex Shaffer in this quirky coming-of-age tale.

Academy Award® Nominee Paul Giamatti* stars as a lovable yet long-suffering lawyer and high-school wrestling coach who takes us on a brilliantly heartfelt journey through the game of life...where you can't lose ’em all. When Mike Flaherty (Giamatti) comes across a teenage runaway who also happens to be a champion wrestler, Mike’s luck turns around in spectacular fashion. But his win-win situation soon becomes more complicated than he ever imagined when the boy’s family affairs come into play. Co-starring Oscar® Nominee Amy Ryan** and directed by Oscar® Nominee Tom McCarthy†, this touching and funny comedy will leave you cheering.

WIN WIN also highlights the critically-acclaimed performances of Bobby Cannavale (Sex and the City, “Third Watch”), Burt Young (Rocky), and Jeffrey Tambor (“Arrested Development,” The Hangover).

 My Thoughts:  While this movie is rated R due to some strong language, this is one movie that I would still let my children watch with me. In the beginning of the film, Mike is worried about money and other frivolous things. But when he meets the teenage runaway he learns what is really important. He takes on the struggle to give the boy a better life away from his selfish, drug abusing mother. And he gives him a goal by getting him involved with the wrestling team. Its a touching film that is the perfect choice for family movie night with teens or tweens.
