Storyline

Sol Goode, a charismatic L.A. twenty-something, has always relied on charm, good looks, and fast talk to glide through life. But his luck may have run out; faced with eviction from his hipster apartment, totaling his car, and the threat of having to find a real job, Sol realizes that maybe the life he's been leading is no longer making him happy. Through this self-examination, he finds that being a womanizing hustler is an unfulfilling life and he will truly be happy with his best friend Chloe, who, unfortunately, knows him all too well. The result is a wickedly funny, heart-felt story as Sol tries to win her over.

A CULT CLASSIC!

I stumbled on to this flick last week when it was on cable. I haven't laughed this hard in...I don't remember. A group of us are still quoting lines from it. Sol Goode is absolutely hysterical. It might not be the most original story but it's definately a fresh spin on a story we've seen before. The dialogue alone is worth watching. The actors do a great job at poking fun at this superficial Hollywood world.

Comden captures this dysfunctional scene, while keeping it grounded at the same time. If you're in the mood for just a good laugh, check it out.
