Oscar winner Russell Crowe leads an all-star cast in the blistering thriller State of Play arriving in theaters April 17th from Universal Pictures. To help get fans in the mood, M&C is giving away a State of Play Prize Pack!

From acclaimed director Kevin Macdonald (The Last King of Scotland), State of Play follows a rising congressman and an investigative journalist embroiled in a case of seemingly unrelated, brutal murders.

Crowe plays D.C. reporter Cal McCaffrey, whose street smarts lead him to untangle a mystery of murder and collusion among some of the nation’s most promising political and corporate figures.

Handsome, unflappable U.S. Congressman Stephen Collins (Ben Affleck) is the future of his political party: an honorable appointee who serves as the chairman of a committee overseeing defense spending. All eyes are upon the rising star to be his party’s contender for the upcoming presidential race. Until his research assistant/mistress is brutally murdered and buried secrets come tumbling out.

McCaffrey has the dubious fortune of both an old friendship with Collins and a ruthless editor, Cameron (Oscar winner Helen Mirren), who has assigned him to investigate. As he and partner Della (Rachel McAdams) try to uncover the killer’s identity, McCaffrey steps into a cover-up that threatens to shake the nation’s power structures. And in a town of spin-doctors and wealthy politicos, he will discover one truth: when billions are at stake, no one’s integrity, love or life is ever safe.The Prize Pack:One Grand Prize Winner will receive a State of Play poster and a $25 Fandango Gift Card.
