  • Summer Fling
  • This crowd-pleasing comedy, featuring big-screen favorites Gabriel Byrne (GHOST SHIP, END OF DAYS), Catherine O'Hara (HOME ALONE 1&2, BEST IN SHOW), and Christina Ricci (THE OPPOSITE OF SEX, SLEEPY HOLLOW), shows that growing up in one offbeat family isn't always easy ... but it is always funny! shows that growing up in one offbeat family isn't always easy ... but it is always funny! June has arrived, and Frankie (Jared Leto -- PANIC ROOM, REQUIEM FOR A DREAM) is sure he's blown his exams ... along with his one shot at getting into college! But before the test results hit, he'll have a wild time pursuing his summer's major goals: planning the ultimate beach bash ... and getting better acquainted with the babes in bikinis he's admired from afar! If you're ready for sexy laughs, don't miss the entertaining fun of Frankie's hilarious summer to remember!
