Synopsis
Solitary Man tells the story of Ben Kalmen, a fifty-something New Yorker and former successful car dealer, who through his own bad choices lost his entire business. When the film opens, Ben's on the verge of a comeback, but some of the same motivations that led to his demise are threatening to take him down again. He's divorced from Nancy, his college sweetheart and the one person who knows him better than anyone. Although he still finds the time to hang out with his daughter Susan and his adoring grandson, she breaks off contact when she discovers he's seeing one of her friends. His girlfriend Jordan is the daughter of a very influential businessman who's on the board of a major auto manufacturer. If Ben can just keep his hubris in check for a little while longer, he will be back as big as ever. But circumstances place him in very close proximity with the one girl he shouldn’t touch, throwing everything into jeopardy.
Solitary Man is directed by BRIAN KOPPELMAN and DAVID LEVIEN from Koppelman's original screenplay. PAUL SCHIFF and STEVEN SODERBERGH produce with AVI LERNER and MOSHE DIAMANT from Nu Image. The film stars the Academy Award winning actor MICHAEL DOUGLAS (Wall Street, The Wonder Boys) as Ben Kalmen. SUSAN SARANDON (Thelma and Louise, Dead Man Walking) heads up the supporting cast in the role of Ben's wife Nancy alongside JENNA FISHER ("The Office") who portrays Ben's daughter Susan. MARY-LOUISE PARKER ("Weeds") plays Ben's Upper East Side girlfriend and newcomer IMOGEN POOTS (28 Weeks Later) plays her daughter Allyson. Rounding out the supporting cast is the upcoming young actor JESSE EISENBERG (The Squid And The Whale) and the award-winning actor DANNY DEVITO (One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest) as Jimmy.
Filmed on location in and around New York City, ALWIN KUCHLER (Morvern Callar, The Mother) is the Director of Photography, ROB PEARSON (Rounders) designed the film, JENNY GERING (The Lucky Ones) designed the costumes and Tricia Cooke (The Man Who Wasn't There) is the film's Editor.
