State and Main

When a big-budget film crew takes over a small town, they shoot first...and ask questions later. Director Walt Price (William H Macy) has his work cut out for him with a girl-crazy leading man (Alec Baldwin), a camera-shy leading lady (Sarah Jessica Parker), an idealistic writer (Philip Seymour Hoffman) and a high strung producer (David Paymer). When the townsfolk eagerly get in on the act, get ready for scandal, greed and romance...Take One!
