I saw this movie at a film festival in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. A very gritty and realistic 35mm short. I think this film deserves a wider release in art-house theaters.
I was impressed with the realistic settings and found it disturbingly funny. The cinematography was right on target, and the soundtrack helped propel the story. While some of the performances were not Oscar caliber -- especially in the supporting roles -- one of the stand-out actors was Dan Wervinger as Goldfarb, a crack-addicted driving school instructor.
This black-comedy covered some of the usual ground in social commentary -- class, race, drugs, etc. -- and while the ending seemed slightly contrived and perfunctory, it really couldn't have ended any other way.
