One of John Ritter's last movie roles was a dinner with friends.

Ritter, who died in September, spent 12 hours with friends Straw Weisman and Andy Goldberg two years ago to make the improvised dramatic-comedy "Man of the Year."

After playing the festival circuit, the film is now playing in one theater in Los Angeles and may play a few other limited engagements in coming months, Weisman told The Associated Press recently.

The movie — shot on July 27, 2001, with 25 actors, 70 crew members, 20 digital cameras and no script — stars Ritter as a wealthy honoree at a dinner party that leads to the unraveling of his life.
