Ben Affleck and Tommy Lee Jones are “The Company Men”

Ben Affleck, Tommy Lee Jones and Chris Cooper walk the Sundance red carpet as "The Company Men."

While the nation was watching the Haiti telethon, it was our own recession and the current unemployment crisis that were under the spotlight at the Sundance premiere of “The Company Men” at the Eccles Theater on Friday night. Stars Ben Affleck, Tommy Lee Jones, Chris Cooper and Rosemarie DeWitt joined director John Wells on the red carpet.

“The Company Men” depicts the lives of three men who go from earning six-figure salaries to being barely employable after a round of corporate downsizing. The film follows the journey from white to blue collar and the effects on the families and communities surrounding the formerly wealthy.
