28 Beer + 6 students +1 Night =
Utopian Society.
Another chance to see Austin early in his career.
You get 40's, Saki bombs, and hooking up. And this isn't his movie with the Olsen twins.
Utopian Society is available on DVD today in the U.S.
Here's a brief synopsis from NY Times.
"Echoing The Breakfast Club and St. Elmo's Fire, Utopian hones in on a group of six coeds at Cal-State Fullerton, brought together under the rubric of a sociological experiment. Inspired by Thomas More's allegory Utopia, these constantly bickering students are instructed to find a way to get along, at any cost, and thus create their own "contemporary utopia." Meet Ken (Yu), the stereotypically overworked Asia
n student, Justin Mathers (Nichols), a fraternity (and sports) obsessed jock; Nera (Doumit), a New Ager-cum-hippie; sorority girl and prima donna Tanci (Akerman); African-American female basketball player Aaliyah (Ariza); and über-independent Caleb (Hostetler), who pair off into romantic couplings, reveal intimate sides of themselves, and undergo significant changes as they interact with one another."

This will answer the question can Austin really be sneaked out in a trunk.
Next Austin DVD coming out - John from Cincinnati - April 1, 2008.
Keep looking for Lenexa, 1 Mile - soon out on DVD too.
