| DVD

A small town pharmacist's uneventful life is turned inside out when a chance encounter with a lonely trophy wife turns into a walk on the wild side in this murderously funny dark comedy starring Sam Rockwell and Olivia Wilde. Doug Varney (Sam Rockwell) has been disregarded for years by everyone from his domineering wife Kara (Michelle Monaghan) to the goldbricking employees at the drugstore he bought from his insufferable father-in-law. When Doug embarks on an exhilarating drug-and-alcohol fuelled affair with Elizabeth (Olivia Wilde) - the most glamorous woman he... has ever met - no-one is more surprised than he is. [show more]

Sam Rockwell stars in this black comedy as a soft-spoken and empathetic small-town pharmacist who begins a drug-fuelled affair with a customer. Living at home with his oddball son and self-obsessed wife Kara (Michelle Monaghan), Douglas (Rockwell) feels taken advantage of and underappreciated. That all changes when he meets Elizabeth (Olivia Wilde), a beautiful and seductive temptress, who offers him a taste of the good life. The two begin a passionate yet sedated affair thanks to Douglas's access to a wealth of drugs through his job. Can they maintain their high or will they face a significant comedown following their hedonistic liaison?
