Numb released on DVD May 13th

LOS ANGELES, May 05, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) ----Four-time Emmy-nominated actor Matthew Perry, along with Academy Award(R: 71.35, +0.44, +0.62%)-winner
Mary Steenburgen and actor/comedian Kevin Pollak, star in the romantic comedy "Numb," which will be released on DVD and digital May 13 by Image Entertainment (NASDAQ:DISK). In addition to the home entertainment and digital rights, Image also has secured the broadcast, pay-per-view and VOD rights to the film.

Writer/Director Harris Goldberg ("Deuce Bigelow: European Gigolo") tells his tragically funny, autobiographical story through Hudson Milbank (Matthew Perry), a depressed screenwriter who is diagnosed with "depersonalization disorder," which is a sense that everything around him is unreal. Desperate to feel like himself again, Hudson seeks out every therapy imaginable, running the L.A. shrink circuit as he plummets further into the depths of hopelessness and detachment.

As he struggles to cope by watching the soothing Golf Channel, shoplifting to get a shot of adrenaline and surviving a cognitive behaviorist with her own issues (played brilliantly by Mary Steenburgen), Hudson's long suffering writing partner (Kevin Pollak, "A Few Good Men," "The Usual Suspects") fears they'll never work again. Things start to change when Hudson meets Sara (Lynn Collins, "The Lake House"), whose relaxed ways and big-hearted spirit make his race to recovery imperative. But even then his relationship becomes threatened by his powerlessness to take on life's risks as he seeks out more extreme measures to get better. He knows she can save him, and she knows he has to save himself.
