After spending his summer doing "As You Like It" in Shakespeare in the Park, Oliver Platt is spending his fall on movie screens in "The Oranges."
In the suburban New Jersey-set film, which opens Friday, Platt plays Terry Ostroff. He lives with wife Carol (Allison Janney), across the street from his best friends, the Wallings: David (Hugh Laurie), Paige (Catherine Keener) and their daughter Vanessa (Alia Shawkat).
All is going well until the Ostroff's daughter Nina (Leighton Meester) comes home for the holidays. Soon, Nina finds herself in David's arms and things escalate.
