| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
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 - and it will become apparent
that shocking motivations lurk just beneath the surface.
