The New Age - (Full Frame, NTSC Format) - [DVD]

<p>'Your inner child is running us into bankruptcy!' Katherine Witner screams at her newly jobless husband Peter. 'Why don't you get in touch with your inner adult?' A with-it L.A. couple scrambles to avoid being without it in the sharply witty The New Age. Following up his biting screenplay for The Player, writer/director Michael Tolkin now bursts the balloons of more La-La-Land sham and scam. Peter Weller and Judy Davis play the Witners, a trendy twosome with more dollars than sense as they careen along a downhill path of mad business pursuits, sexual escapades, new-age babble and questionable spiritualism. In a glitzy society where everyone's born to shop, the Witners are starting to drop -- and they're going like the '90s in 'the sexiest, smartest comedy this decade has produced' (Polly Frost, Harper's Bazaar).</p>
