Actors Robert Davi and Peter Bogdanovich to Ring the NASDAQ Stock Market Opening Bell


ADVISORY, Nov. 12, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --



 What:
 Robert Davi and Peter Bogdanovich, stars of the indie dramedy, THE
 DUKES, will preside over the opening bell.

 Rife with both enchanting humor and raw humanity, THE DUKES is the
 story of a down-and-out Doo Wop band who take a bumbling detour
 into burglary in their endless quest to make good on their
 dreams. Robert Davi ("Die Hard," "The Goonies", "License To
 Kill"), Academy Award(r) nominee Chazz Palminteri ("Bullets Over
 Broadway," "A Bronx Tale") and Academy Award(r) nominated
 multi-talent Peter Bogdanovich headline an extraordinary ensemble
 cast who bring to life the story of a group of middle-aged former
 stars who -- besieged by busted hopes, broken marriages, fading
 celebrity and humiliating obsolescence -- turn into mid-life
 bandits when they come to believe that one big heist could lead
 to their comeback. Nothing is going to stop THE DUKES from
 regaining the American Dream...even if they have to re-invent
 it the second time around. THE DUKES is presented by Cavu Pictures.
