In the post-apocalyptic future of 2013, America has become a patchwork quilt of isolated communities preyed upon by roving gangs and militias. Into this wasteland comes a mail-toting drifter (Kevin Costner)--known as "the Postman"--whose claim to represent a restored United States government revives the survivors’ hope and makes him a reluctant leader. Will Patton, Olivia Williams, and Larenz Tate also star in this sweeping science-fiction drama directed by Costner. 178 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital 5.1, French Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English, French, Spanish; documentary; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
