Win 'Fred Claus' Movie Prizes
Movie Opens Nationwide Nov. 9
Fred Claus (Vince Vaughn) has lived his entire life in his brother’s very large shadow. As much as Fred tried, he could hardly live up to the example set by the younger Nicholas (Paul Giamatti), who was just a perfect, well, saint.True to form, Nicholas grew up to be the model of giving, while Fred became the polar opposite: a fast-talking repo man who’s run out of luck and money.Over Mrs. Claus' objections, Nicholas agrees to help his brother on one condition: that he come to the North Pole and earn the money he needs by working in Santa’s Toy Shop.The trouble is that Fred isn’t exactly elf material and, with Christmas fast approaching, Fred could jeopardize the jolliest holiday of the year.Directed by David Dobkin, "Fred Claus" also stars Miranda Richardson ("Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire"), John Michael Higgins ("Evan Almighty"), Elizabeth Banks ("Spider-Man 3"), with Rachel Weisz ("The Constant Gardener"), Kathy Bates ("Failure to Launch") and Kevin Spacey ("Superman Returns").Rated "PG" by the Motion Picture of Association for mild language and some rude humor, "Fred Claus" opens in theaters nationwide Nov. 9The Contest
