COMEDY FROM NEW LINE HOME ENTERTAINMENT

Los Angeles (September 30, 2002) New Line Home Entertainment today announced the DVD release of the quirky film, Human Nature. This clever, colorful comedy from Academy Award® nominated screenwriter Charlie Kaufman (Being John Malkovich) is a hilarious inquiry into the idiosyncrasies of the human heart and civilized mind as revealed when a man raised as an ape gets involved in an unusual love triangle. Human Nature will be available to rent and for sale on DVD for $26.98 on December 10.

Directed by celebrated French music video and commercial director Michel Gondry, Human Nature stars Tim Robbins (High Fidelity, The Shawshank Redemption), Patricia Arquette (Little Nicky, Flirting with Disaster) and Rhys Ifans (Notting Hill, The Shipping News). The film also features Miranda Otto (upcoming The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, What Lies Beneath) and Rosie Perez (Riding In Cars With Boys).

This DVD only release includes a widescreen (1.85:1) and a fullscreen version of the film, 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound, Stereo Surround Sound in English and French, English subtitles and closed captions. The DVD also features animated menus, the theatrical trailer and DVD-ROM material.

A philosophical spoof, Human Nature follows the ups and downs of an obsessive scientist, a female naturalist, and the man they discover raised in the wild. As scientist Nathan (Robbins) trains the wild man, Puff (Ifans) in the ways of the world - starting with table manners - Nathan's lover Lila (Arquette) fights to preserve the man's simian past, which she feels represents a freedom enviable to most. In the power struggle that ensues, a strange love triangle emerges. Human Nature examines issues of evolution, the human desire to blend in and what it really is that makes us human.
