Here is the movie trailer for the feature film "Somewhere" directed by Sofia Coppola Here are 3 movie clips for the feature film "Somewhere" The weirdest thing about this film to me is that I actually happened to be at Stephen Dorff's house in Malibu when he got the call from Sofia about this film.

In case you have trouble finding a suitable lighter, the exact one I use in this video is a...
