"Curb Your Enthusiasm" star Jeff Garlin swung by HuffPost Live on Wednesday to promote his new movie "Dealin' with Idiots," and didn't hold back on his opinion about the not guilty verdict in the George Zimmerman murder trial.

"Until the law is changed, I won't go back to Florida," Garlin said, referring to the state's infamous "stand-your-ground" law (which was not actually used as a defense in the trial).

The actor and stand-up comedian has roots in the state. He attended high school and college in Fort Lauderdale and Miami, respectively, and launched his comedy career there.

The stand-up comedian had a lot to say Monday night at the 92nd Street Y in a conversation where nothing was off limits, including the future of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and his recent arrest.

The evening's focus was on Garlin, and the "Bowling for Columbine" director made sure to keep it there. The duo...

New opener "Fruitvale Station" and "The Way, Way Back" (in its second week) are the biggest specialty hits of the summer season so far, after several weeks of promising new openings that have failed to cross the $10 million mark as they expanded. The timely and unsettling "Fruitvale" boasts the best limited release of the summer, while Fox Searchlight's "The Way, Way Back" earned a high-end per-screen-average for its number of theaters, suggesting solid audience response with much more to come. Two IFC VOD releases -- "The Crystal Fairy" and "Dealin' With Idiots" -- showed some decent numbers, with Magnolia's "The Hunt" and Goldwyn's "Still Mine" also made decent initial showings.
