Catch a Great new Flic about... Wine!

Check out the new wine flic Bottle Shock starring Alan Rickman (Harry Potter films) that has been getting praise since its showing at Sundance.

Short Synopsis (rottentomatoes.com): Looking for a way to boost his failing Parisian wine shop, a snobbish Brit named Steven Spurrier (Alan Rickman) heads to California's Napa Valley, preparing for a tasting contest he has set up, pitting his favorite French wines against up-and-coming vintages from California. He assumes that a victory by the French wines will spur people to flock to his store, but he is surprised to find that the California wines are not quite as awful as he had imagined.
