From the mind of Oscar nominee Steven Knight comes the daringly original, sexy, stylized thriller Serenity, starring Academy Award winner Matthew McConaughey and Academy Award Winner Anne Hathaway. Baker Dill ( McConaughey) is a fishing boat captain leading tours off a tranquil, tropical enclave called Plymouth Island.
