10 [DVD] [Standard]

An ambitious young editor (Aubrey Plaza) goes on a wild book tour with a curmudgeonly has-been author (Michael Caine) who just wants to live out his days in peace with a bottle of scotch and his cat.

Successful Hollywood composer George Webber has everything--money, a beautiful house and a talented, sexy girlfriend--but as he turns 42, he spends his time watching beautiful young women and rating each of them on a scale of 1 to 10. His standards are tough--the Venus de Milo, would only rate a seven. And then George sees a 10. Possessed by her beauty, he will stop at nothing to have her, even though she is on her honeymoon.

An aging comedian tours the California desert, lost in a cycle of third-rate venues, novelty tourist attractions, and vain attempts to reach his estranged daughter. By day, he slogs through the barren landscape, inadvertently alienating every acquaintance. At night, he seeks solace in the animation of his onstage persona. Fueled by the promise of a lucrative Hollywood engagement and the possibility of rekindling a relationship with his daughter, he trudges through a series of increasingly surreal and volatile encounters.
