  • Playing Mona Lisa
  • Alicia Witt (URBAN LEGENDS), Brooke Langton (THE REPLACEMENTS), Ivan Sergei (THE OPPOSITE OF SEX), and Johnny Galecki (BOUNCE) star in one sexy screwball comedy you'll really embrace. Claire Goldstein (Witt) has everything going for her -- the promise of fame, a great boyfriend with marriage on his mind, and an apartment of her own. And then reality shakes her entire world to pieces. Her moment of glory is snatched from her before it begins, her boyfriend drops her, and she's evicted. Condemned to find refuge at her crazy parents' house while her sister is blissfully planning her own wedding, Claire starts looking for love in all the wrong places. Filled with quirky characters, "I've-been-there" smiles, and witty dialogue, PLAYING MONA LISA is a delightful work of heart.
