The Darwin Awards

The Darwin Awards

Joseph Fiennes and Winona Ryder lead "an all-star cast" ('The Hollywood Reporter') in this "slick, smart" ('E! Online') "genial, off-center comedy" ('Los Angeles Times') and "downright hilarious terrific, satire" ('Film Threat') from director Finn Taylor (Cherish, Dream with the Fishes). Featuring numerous, funny cameos from David Arquette, Julianna Margulies, Tim Blake Nelson, Juliette Lewis, Wilmer Valderrama, Robin Tunney, Chris Penn and more, 'The Darwin Awards' is "a deliciously dark, highly entertaining film" ('Sundance Film Festival Guide').

Detective Michael Burrows (Fiennes} is obsessed with 'The Darwin Awards', which are bestowed posthumously to people who accidentally kill themselves in incredibly stupid ways. So when he's fired for bungling an arrest, he offers his profiling services to a life insurance company, and with the help of a tough claims investigator (Ryder), he sets out to learn how to identify these idiots...before they die!
