Trivia:

The movie came about after director Jill Wisoff, seeking a writing/acting partner to help contribute to an original script with out of the ordinary women's parts, met Carol Lee Sirugo while they were doing extra work on a Richard Benjamin film, Marci X (2003), in Brooklyn. The script got going right away after they hit upon the idea of taking on the roles of sisters.

Soundtrack:

Rock on Rajah Man

Funny, Quirky, Laugh out Loud!!!

I saw the film at a film festival in Los Angeles and was really surprised. Normally, serious, depressing films go with low budget, but not funny.

This film had me on the floor, with crazy, unpredictable characters and situations.

The two sisters were great. The part of the love interest was also very cool and was so not type cast, love that. The acting was superb and the look was not low budget.

I would recommend the film to anyone who loves quirky comedies and wants to just laugh for an hour or so.
