    WHAT:   The World Premiere of "The Whole Ten Yards," starring BRUCE
            WILLIS, MATTHEW PERRY, AMANDA PEET, KEVIN POLLAK AND NATASHA
            HENSTRIDGE. Thanks to falsified dental records supplied by his
            former neighbor Nicholas "Oz" Oseransky (Matthew Perry),
            retired hitman Jimmy "The Tulip" Tudeski (Bruce Willis) now
            spends his days compulsively cleaning his house and perfecting
            his culinary skills with his wife Jill (Amanda Peet), a
            purported assassin who has yet to pull off a clean hit.
            Suddenly, an uninvited and unwelcome connection to their past
            unexpectedly shows up on Jimmy and Jill's doorstep: it's Oz,
            and he's begging them to help him rescue his wife from a
            Hungarian mob. Together they'll have to go the whole nine
            yards -- and then some -- to manage the mounting Mafioso
            mayhem.
