Come along on a spirited fifteen-year journey that follows songwriting sensation Denise Waverly (Illeana Douglas, To Die For, Ghost World, Cape Fear) who struggles to escape the shadow of pop-music icons and ultimately emerges a singer in her own right. From the late 1950s doo-wop era to the psychedelic seventies, Denise’s experiences in life and adventures in romance stir her genius and inspire the rich melodies that sustain a music empire. In crafting the hits the whole world sings, Denise draws on her relationships with the men in her life: a brilliant, but self- destructive composer (Matt Dillon, Drugstore Cowboy, The Outsiders, Crash), and his songwriting partner (Eric Stoltz, Mask, Some Kind of Wonderful). And in a hilarious and touching role, John Turturro (Barton Fink, O Brother Where Art Thou, Miller’s Crossing) plays the producer who provides Denise support and guidance during three decades of trials and triumphs. From executive producer Martin Scorsese (The Irishman, The Wolf of Wall Street, The Aviator) and celebrated writer/director Allison Anders (Gas Food Lodging, Four Rooms), Grace of My Heart is the lyrical tale of a remarkable woman striving to find her own voice in the male-dominated world of pop music. The remarkable cast also includes Bruce Davison (Longtime Companion, Willard, Brass Target, Short Eyes), Bridget Fonda (Single White Female, Point of No Return), Chris Isaak (Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me) and Patsy Kensit (Lethal Weapon 2). Special Features: -Audio Commentary by Director/Writer Allison Anders -The Idea Becomes a Movie: Making-of Doc -Deleted Scenes -Theatrical Trailer -5.1 Surround and 2.0 Lossless Audio -Dual-Layered BD50 Disc -Optional English Subtitles

Product Description In this supernatural thriller, Tom Witzky (Kevin Bacon) is a fairly typical working-class guy living in Chicago with his wife Maggie (Kathryn Erbe) and his son Jake (Zachary David Cope). One night at a party, Tom gets into a lively discussion with his sister-in-law, Lisa (Illeana Douglas), who believes in psychic communication and the power of hypnosis. He challenges Lisa to hypnotize him, and she Amazon.com Review The only real problem with Stir of Echoes has nothing to do with the movie itself, but with unlucky coincidence. Adapted from a Richard Matheson novel, this film arrived around the same time as The Sixth Sense, and surface similarities made it suffer by cursory comparison and the competing film's phenomenal success. It's a pity, because this one features one of Kevin Bacon's best performances, in a psychological thriller that makes a lot more right moves than wrong ones. Bacon plays a blue-collar guy who laments his ordinary life, only to learn, when his sister-in-law (Ileanna Douglas) hypnotizes him, that he is a "receiver" capable of seeing spirits and split-second glimpses of past and future events. It's a torturous gift to have--especially since his friendly Chicago neighborhood possesses a dark secret--and Bacon plays the role with an appropriate mixture of obsession and internalized torment. Similarity to The Sixth Sense applies only to the basic premise and the character of Bacon's young son. Otherwise, this is more of a hard-edged journey of self-discovery, marital crisis, and recovery, with Bacon's wife (played by the highly underrated Kathryn Erbe) involved in an underdeveloped subplot about a group of people who share Bacon's gift as paranormal "receivers." Furthering his career as a writer-director of intelligent thrillers, David Koepp makes a few missteps in pacing and thematic overkill, but overall Stir of Echoes is a sharp, sensitive thriller that unfolds to reveal a dramatically satisfying solution to its mystery. --Jeff Shannon See more

Deftly deploying shifting perspectives, faux-documentary interviews, and a supporting cast featuring Joaquin Phoenix, Matt Dillon, and Casey Affleck, director Gus Van Sant adds provocative layers of meaning to this darkly funny examination of suburban sociopathy.
