Columbia Pictures Presents the World Premiere of Vantage Point

NEW YORK, February 16/PRNewswire/ --

WHAT: PREMIERE OF COLUMBIA PICTURES "VANTAGE POINT"
In Columbia Pictures' action-packed thriller Vantage Point,
eight strangers with eight different points of view try to
unlock the one truth behind an assassination attempt on the
president of the United States. Thomas Barnes (Dennis Quaid)
and Kent Taylor (Mathew Fox) are two Secret Service agents
assigned to protect President Ashton (William Hurt) at a
landmark summit on the global war on terror. When President
Ashton is shot moments after his arrival in Spain, chaos ensues
and disparate lives collide in the hunt for the assassin. In
the crowd is Howard Lewis (Forest Whitaker), an American
tourist who thinks he's captured the shooter on his camcorder
while videotaping the event for his kids back home. Also
there, relaying the historic event to millions of TV viewers
across the globe, is American TV news producer Rex Brooks
(Sigourney Weaver). As they and others reveal their stories,
the pieces of the puzzle will fall into place.
