Storyline

Gabe, a brilliant film school graduate, wants to make a noir movie, but there's just one problem: no one wants to give him funding. After a chance encounter with laundromat thief Gideon, Gabe knows what to do: he and his crew will shoot their movie guerilla style, robbing convenience stores, filming the whole thing and then explaining afterwards to the people they've just robbed. There's just one little problem: Gideon starts keeping the money (hey, old habits die hard). Now the filmmakers are wanted felons, with the police hot on their trail.

User Reviews

Excellent Movie!

I've seen this movie god knows how many times so far, its just great, any time a friend comes over I make them watch it, and they're never sorry for watching it. This movie is hopefully the first in a long line of movies from Jeffery Bassetti and Christopher Fetherolf. The story is intriguing and just draws you in, its like riding a rollercoaster, nice steady buildup, then WHAM! off ya go! I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to watch a fun movie that makes ya think.
