NIGHT THREE // FEATURE FILM

Patriotville

Directed by: Talmage Cooley

Starring: Justin Long, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Rob Corddry, Keir O’Donnell and Missi Pyle

*Q & A with director Talmage Cooley and select cast following the Premiere

Small-town America takes center stage in Patriotville, a witty satire that explores greed, corruption and the American Way. In a tailor-made role, Justin Long ("He's Just Not That Into You", and ubiquitous "Apple" guy) plays Chase Revere, an idealistic museum manager who believes preserving history will pave the way for a brighter future in his slowly deteriorating town of Patriotville. Meanwhile, the Mayor, a scene-stealing Rob Corddry ("W", "Semi-Pro", "Harold & Kumar II"), thinks a new casino is the answer to striking it rich, a promise which quickly turns the town upside-down. But what’s really going on? And who’s getting screwed, and who’s screwing who?

With a winning cast, including beauty Emmanuelle Chriqui (Sloan from HBO's "Entourage") as Chase’s eccentric love interest, Patriotville is a humorously sharp film for the underdog in all of us.
