  • Jerry And Tom
  • This first-rate motion picture features popular Joe Mantegna (CELEBRITY) in an edgy, offbeat story about two second-rate used car salesmen moonlighting as hit men for the mob. A quiet family man by day, Tom (Mantegna) teaches his new partner Jerry (Sam Rockwell, GALAXY QUEST) all he knows about his other job -- that of professional killer! But even if he's shocked at first, the brash young Jerry soon acquires such a taste for his new profession that it scares everyone around him ... even those who scare people for a living! Also starring William H. Macy (FARGO, BOOGIE NIGHTS) and Ted Danson (SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, MUMFORD) in memorably funny roles, JERRY AND TOM is sure to be a hit with anyone who's ever enjoyed the wit and intrigue of Hollywood's best mobster movies!
