Flying the Stars and Stripes in the 7,000-seat Piazza will be the world preem of the Weinstein Co.'s Vikings-meet-an-alien actioner "Outlander"; Sundance comedy "Choke," screening in tribute to thesp Anjelica Huston, this year's Excellence Award recipient; and WB's "Chaos Theory," with Ryan Reynolds and Emily Mortimer.
