EW Crib Sheet: Telling the 'Days' apart

A look at what separates '30 Days,' '28 Days,' '13 Days,' and '7 Days'

30 DAYS
In an indie due in September, a guy says he's getting married in a month.
SHELF LIFE: Less than 30 days, thanks to a cast of unknowns.

28 DAYS
The recent Sandra Bullock drama about a drunken journalist who is saddled with a four-week rehab stint.
SHELF LIFE: Just about 28 days. After four weeks, the movie fell off the top 10 wagon.

13 DAYS
In this December drama, Kevin Costner plays a White House aide during nearly two weeks of 1962's Cuban Missile Crisis.
SHELF LIFE: A skosh over 13 days. Despite his own recent bombing run, Costner has a good history with JFK.

7 DAYS
This UPN drama stars Jonathan LaPaglia as a man who can travel one week back in time to alter history.
SHELF LIFE: Way more than seven days. Believe it or not, the show is entering its third season. (Of course, this is UPN.)
