Ever dreamt of seeing Matthew Broderick and Alan Alda walk in slow-motion to a Canasta song? Well, your dreams have become reality! IFC Films is just about to release their new movie,
Diminished Capacity, and about halfway though the trailer, "Slow Down Chicago" comes crashing in! Most of the story takes place here in Chicago, so the song sounds more or less right at home. The picture also stars Virginia Madsen, Dylan Baker, Bobby Cannavale and Louis C.K. and opens in both Chicago and NYC on July 4th. Check out the trailer
