Lars and the Real Girl on April 15th
February 20, 2008
When a misguided young man thinks he has found true love - with a life-sized doll, his family and friends must learn to love her in Lars and the Real Girl, arriving on DVD April 15th from MGM Home Entertainment. Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, Lars and the Real Girl is a heartfelt comedy that is "nothing less than a miracle...an almost perfect film with flawless performances" (Joe Morgenstern, The Wall Street Journal). Academy Award nominee Ryan Gosling (Half Nelson) stars as Lars Lindstrom, a loveable introvert whose emotional baggage has kept him from fully embracing life. After years of solitude, Lars invites Bianca, a friend he met on the Internet to visit him. When he introduces Bianca to his brother and his wife they are stunned to find out that Bianca is a life-sized doll. What follows is a humorous but emotional journey for Lars, his family and the community around him. Written by Six Feet Under scribe Nancy Oliver and featuring an all-star supporting cast including Emily Mortimer (Lovely & Amazing), Paul Schneider (Pretty Bird) and Oscar nominee Patricia Clarkson (Pieces of April), Lars and the Real Girl is an endearing, intelligent and tender comedic drama about unconditional love that "will sweep you off your feet" (Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times). Lars and the Real Girl bonus features include Just Like All The Other Actors, The Real Story of Lars and the Real Girl and more, and will be available for the suggested retail price of $27.98 U.S. Pre-book is March 19.
