Plot Synopsis
Storyline
West of Brooklyn takes us on a heartfelt and often humorous journey from Brooklyn, New York to Hollywood, California. "Sebi" is a young Italian American man, a simple street kid and a secret beat poet, who after the death of his mother escapes Brooklyn to join his crew of friends who recently relocated to L.A. These colorful characters from New York are truly fish out of water in L.A. and Sebi longs to find a place he can feel at home. Sebi's friends, a beautiful rich girl from Beverly Hills named "Matty", and his idol, a famous Bronx poet named "Gaetano D'Amico" bring Sebi face to face with his identity and help him find the courage to be exactly who he was all along. Written by Ronnie Marmo

I actually never post reviews here but I thought what the heck for a change. So I registered and here I am.
OK I just saw this movie a couple of weeks back and originally went to see it because I know Ronnie Marmo's stuff and wanted to see his new film. He is a great great great talent I must say. Well this movie was not at all disappointing. It had everything I love in a movie. Humor, sadness, and fun. The cast was wonderful and it seemed to me while watching this movie that they all must be friends in real life. They were just that believable on screen.
The actress who played Matty I never heard of, Natalia Livingston, but she was wonderful and beautiful and sweet. . And Ronnie. Well I hesitate to comment because he was terrific but this was not a surprise. His story and movie. This fella is a super talent. I hope this movie can gain a fan base and some momentum cannot imagine anyone seeing this movie and not loving it. It is just one of those films everyone would love if they had a chance to see it. Great job to everyone involved and people need to spread the word and get this movie more exposure. Wonderful job people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
