ROSANNA ARQUETTE AND DAVID BOWIE STAR IN THIS DELIGHTFUL ROMANTIC CAPER FROM DIRECTOR RICHARD SHEPARD!

Lucy (Rosanna Arquette, Pulp Fiction) is an underpaid waitress at "Dali", a terminally hip New York City restaurant, who's seriously in need of cash. Dali's new, mysterious, charming (and very in debt) bartender, Monte (David Bowie, The Hunger) needs to marry someone, anyone, by the end of the week... or else. Together they join forces-- along with Lucy's lingerie designing best friend, Viv (Eszter Balint, Stranger Than Paradise) -- to rob the popular eatery and solve their financial woes. However these three are far from master criminals and they soon learn that in robberies, as in love, things never go as planned.

This "lively and amusing" (Los Angeles Times) romantic caper co-stars Andre Gregory (Demolition Man), Buck Henry (Heaven Can Wait) and Academy Award® winner Marlee Matlin (Children of a Lesser God) and features "David Bowie's zaniest most underrated film role" (Collider) in this engaging romantic comedy from acclaimed director Richard Shepard (The Matador) in this never before seen director's cut.

Press Quotes

David Bowie's zaniest most underrated film role... Bowie decided he wanted to be a rom-com lead, and he went out there and nailed it on his first damn try.

     —Maggie Boccella, Collider

'The Linguini Incident' trumpets its eccentricity with its title and casting, as well as in every other way it can... Mr. Bowie makes himself an amusingly level-headed presence, and Ms. Balint is scene-stealingly good as the hapless inventor.

     —Janet Maslin, The New York Times

Lively and amusing... a contemporary screwball comedy that actually works. It brings to mind 'A Fish Called Wanda' both in its off-the-wall humor and in its equally distinctive cast.

     —Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
