The Quest is Jean-Claude Van Damme's directorial debut, in which he tries to revive the swashbuckler genre (with the help of Roger Moore, of all people); The Truth About Cats and Dogs is a kids' comedy arriving here this summer; Sunset Park is an underdogs-in-sport drama; and Mulholland Falls, with Nick Nolte and Michael Madsen, was described as a "Chinatown wannabe" by Variety. (All figures denote weekend box-office only.)
