(122cm); 48 x 84 x 22 in.BASED ON THE BEST SELLING NOVEL 'A WINDOW FOR ONE YEAR', THIS FILM CHRONICLES ONE PIVOTAL SUMMER IN THE LIVES OF FAMOUS CHILDREN'S BOOK AUTHOR TED COLE & HIS BEAUTIFUL WIFE MARION. IT IS A PROVOCATIVE STORY ABOUT ONE COUPLE'S EMOTIONAL JOURNEY INTO A WORLD OF DARING SENSUALITY & STUNNING HONESTY.Jeff Bridges demonstrates once again that he is one of the finest actors in film. Ted Cole (Bridges, Seabiscuit, The Big Lebowski), a successful writer/illustrator of children's books, invites a young student named Eddie (Jon Foster) to be his assistant for a summer. Eddie doesn't realize he's being drawn into the middle of a dissolving marriage until Ted's wife Marion (Ki! m Basinger, L. A. Confidential) invites him into an affair--which Ted both condones and resents. Slowly, Eddie comes to understand the secrets that are tearing the marriage apart. Bridges never shows off; everything he does seems simple, natural, almost unavoidable, but it's also utterly watchable. Whether you like the movie will depend on whether you like John Irving (The Door in the Floor is based on part of his novel A Widow for One Year), but Bridges's performance is undeniable. Also featuring Mimi Rogers (The Rapture). --Bret FetzerThe screenplay for the major motion picture The Door in the Floor, based on the #1 national bestseller A Widow for One Year by John Irving

In Irving’s introduction to Tod Williams’s screenplay, John Irving calls the script “the most word-for-word faithful translation to film of any of the adaptations written from my novelsâ€"including my own adaptation of The Cider House! Rules.” Yet Williams has made a radical and insightful ! choice: namely, to tell only the first third of Irving’s long, dark novel.

In this part of the story, sixteen-year-old Eddie O’Hare, an aspiring writer, believes he has landed the perfect summer job when he is hired as the personal assistant to the successful children’s book illustrator and author Ted Cole. But the Coles are a family marked by tragedy. Their two teenage sons were killed in a car accident; Marion Cole, the boys’ mother, has never recovered from their loss. Ted and Marion have temporarily separated, and their living arrangements, which involve their four-year-old daughter, Ruth, areâ€"especially to Eddie’s limited experienceâ€"baffling. Ted seems to be having an affair with his model, the acerbic Mrs. Vaughn, and Marion and Eddie increasingly find themselves alone together or alone with Ruth.

The Door in the Floor is a smooth and vivid adaptation of the darkest, most disturbing part of A Widow for One Year.Director Tod Williams (! The Adventure of Sebastian Cole) has drastically cut 'n' pasted novelist John Irving's A Year as a Widow into a challenging examination of love, loss and troubled character whose tone lies somewhere between The Ice Storm and In the Bedroom. Williams' troubled interior landscapes inspire Brazilian composer Marcelo Zarvos to an understated, if emotionally compelling gem of a score here, one that treats the film's melodrama with measured respect and a warm, invitingly human sense of scale. The composer's cues lean towards a small string ensemble, seasoning those mature, autumnal arrangements with spare, haunting solo piano passages ("A Sound Like Someone"), gentle harp flourishes ("Orient Point," "Summer Job") and a halting, playful take on the minuet ("Gin Lane," "Eduardo Gets Fired"). The result evokes a cross between Rachel Portman's own delicate scoring sensibilities and the introspective work of Elmer Bernstein on Far From Heaven ! and its own 50's inspirations, like To Kill a Mockingbird), yet imbued with a stately neo-classicism that is all Zarvos' own. --Jerry McCulley3/4', Satin Nickel Low Dome Door Stop, Designed To Protect Wall & Door From Damage On Doors With 1/4' To 3/4' Clearance, Carded.
