    The World Needs More Movies Like This!
    Why can't all movies be like this? I guess if they were, nothing would be special.

    California solo is all about great writing, acting and direction. It is truly special.

    No gimmicks, slick Hollywood tricks - just great dialog, direction and acting.

    If you're a musician, you'll love this movie. If you're HUMAN you'll love this movie!

    Highly recommended.
