Pretend for a moment that souls exist. Pretend that there really is some indefinable, immeasurable, and eternal essence that resides somewhere within our frail human construct. Pretend that magical little bugger is even more unique to each individual than a fingerprint or retinal pattern, and that it contains everything that makes you… you.

Now wake up and stop pretending because we have something much more important to ponder… free stuff!

We’re giving away two (2) copies of the new Paul Giamatti comedy Cold Souls on DVD!

All you have to do to enter is leave a comment below answering the following two questions.

1. If you could swap your soul with any other person, whose soul would you want?
2. Why?

That’s it! Make sure the email address associated with your comment is legit because that’s how we’ll be contacting the winners. One entry is allowed per person, and the contest is open to residents of the continental US ages 18 and over.

Here’s the official synopsis of Cold Souls from 20th Century Fox:

Balancing a tightrope between deadpan humor and pathos, reality and fantasy collide in the surreal comedy Cold Souls, arriving on DVD March 2 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.  Golden Globe Award® winner and Academy Award® nominee Paul Giamatti (Sideways) stars as an actor named… Paul Giamatti. During rehearsals for Chekhov’s “Uncle Vanya,” he finds his soul growing so heavy under the weight of the material that his whole life begins to suffer.  When Giamatti hears of a doctor who extracts and stores souls, he decides to undergo the procedure.  Unburdened, Giamatti’s life becomes freewheeling, easygoing… and more intolerable than ever!  He returns to the doctor demanding his old soul back, but a little snafu involving the Russian black market leads him on a harrowing journey that gives new meaning to the term “soul searching!”

Featuring an all-star supporting cast that includes Academy Award® nominees Emily Watson (The Water Horse) and David Strathairn (The Bourne Ultimatum), Cold Souls is the debut feature film of Sophie Barthes who both directed and wrote the hilariously twisted comedy, which garnered her a nomination for Best First Screenplay by the 2010 Independent Spirit Awards.  The Cold Souls DVD includes the ‘Soul Extractor’ slide show featurette and nine deleted scenes.”

The contest ends Friday, March 5th at noon PST. Winners will be notified by email. Good luck!
