LOS ANGELES, Sept. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- In support of Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc. (MGM) upcoming theatrical release of FEAST OF LOVE, the studio is sponsoring a North American Coffee Day offering patrons a free cup of coffee on Thursday, September 20, 2007. From 2pm until 4pm local time, customers will be treated to free coffee by stopping by one of 92 coffee shops in 59 cities in North America in order to celebrate love, life and coffee in the spirit of the film's coffee house backdrop. Additionally in select locations customers will have the chance to obtain FEAST OF LOVE advance screening passes, copies of The Feast of Love paper back book authored by Charles Baxter and the movie's soundtrack.

Arriving in theatres on September 28, 2007, FEAST OF LOVE is from Academy Award(R) winning director Robert Benton (KRAMER VS. KRAMER) and produced by Lakeshore Entertainment. The film is a kaleidoscopic ode to life and love in all its funny, sad, sexy, crazy, heartbreaking and extraordinary facets. In a tight-knit Oregon neighborhood, local professor Harry Stevenson (Academy Award(R) winner Morgan Freeman) witnesses love and attraction whipping up mischief among the town's residents -- who include Academy Award(R) nominee Greg Kinnear, Radha Mitchell, Billy Burke, Selma Blair, Alexa Davalos and Toby Hemingway with Jane Alexander and Fred Ward -- all their stories intertwine into one remarkable romantic tale.
