(November 5; Samuel Goldwyn)
What�s The Deal?
Directed by Jake Scott (Ridley�s son), �Rileys� follows a couple (James Gandolfini and Melissa Leo) whose relationship has been deteriorating ever since their daughter�s untimely death. Enter a scrappy underage prostitute played by Kristen Stewart.
Who�s Already Seen It?

Why is it a �Must See�?
The film debuted to very warm notices at the Sundance Film Festival, particularly for Stewart�s performance. Audiences haven�t recently given her a chance outside the �Twilight� series (see �Adventureland� and �The Runaways�), but perhaps this film can change that. If Samuel Goldwyn (who picked up the film from Apparition after they all-but-folded) plays their cards right, it could even give her some Oscar buzz.
