Hollywood opens its presents early this weekend with the arrival of a few deluxe-wrapped packages full of good holiday cheer.

"Anna and the King," a richly decorated version of the classic musical "The King and I" sans the music, should pique the interests of romantic moviegoers young and old. It stars Academy Award winner Jodie Foster and Hong Kong action icon Chow Yun-Fat.

Gifts for the kids come in the form of the studio movies "Stuart Little" and "Bicentennial Man." Based on a beloved children's novel, "Stuart Little" tells the live-action adventures of a pet mouse, with a voice provided by Michael J. Fox. In "Bicentennial Man," Robin Williams undergoes a different kind of transformation, playing an android who learns what it means to be human. "Mrs. Doubtfire" director Chris Columbus helms the film.

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 24, 2001 -- The fifth day of the Sundance Film Festival saw studios picking up the pace in what has been an unusually sluggish purchasing climate.

New Regency Films was in final negotiations to pick up distribution rights for “K-19: The Widowmaker.” Starring Harrison Ford and Liam Neeson, the drama is based on the true story of a Soviet submarine crew’s attempt to keep the payload on their vessel from a nuclear meltdown. The film begins production in February and is budgeted for $80 million.

Lions Gate Films has also paid $1 million for North American distribution rights to “Double Whammy.” Written by Tom DiCillo, the comic thriller stars Denis Leary as a New York City homicide detective who manages to straighten out both his back and his career -- with a little help from a voluptuous chiropractor (Elizabeth Hurley).
