The Whole Ten Yards

Jealousy is such an insidious sin. It creeps in quietly and grabs hold, twists our brain and leaves us as a shameful shadow of the person we want to be and hope we are. Jill St. Claire (Amanda Peet) is its poster child. The moment her guy, Jimmy “The Tulip” Tudeski (Bruce Willis), learns his ex, Cynthia (Natasha Henstridge), has been kidnapped, he’s off to help find her yet Jill tried for two years to get him off his ass and go back into his chosen profession of contract killing. Then when she learns that Jimmy’s lucky crucifix was a gift from Cynthia, she goes ballistic, cutting him off completely from all consort and won’t even let him into their motel room, forcing Jimmy to share one with Oz Oseransky (Matthew Perry) and their kidnap-swappee Strabo Gogolak (Frank Collison).

Waking Ned Devine

The death of a friend always provokes a gamut of emotions, particularly if you’re the one who discovers the body. All of this runs through Jackie O’Shea (Ian Bannen) when he finds the corpse of his friend Ned Devine (Jimmy Keough) with a massive grin on his face. It appears that he died of shock after learning that he won the lottery. Now Jackie is exasperated to think that nobody can claim the winnings since it must be claimed by the purchaser, according to Irish lottery rules. But then maybe there is something that can be done.
