I just saw this film at the Santa Barbara Intl Film Fest. The director and some of the actors and production team were on hand after for a q and a ??
Peel played by Emile Hirsch lives with his mother. His Father ran off with his 2 older brothers when he was very young. He has a very close relationship with his Mother, played by Amy Brenneman ,but when she dies he decides to try and locate his lost brothers and rents out a room in his house to finance the search. Peel is kinda different from most folks so his new roommates try to take advantage of him but also coach him on girls and things. A really attractive Asian girl likes Peel. So the journey to find his brothers begins. I will not spoil it with how the story plays out, but will say Bravo enjoyed the Film and characters ! Big applause at end from audience
Didn't know what I was getting into when I threw this movie on but it deff. left a great impression. The story itself was interesting and in actuality could happen and similar stuff probably has happened to people. It was believable and the main actors and most of the others did a great job of making me believe this.
It is deff. a feel good movie and would recomend
7.3

The movie starts out slow but then keeps you on your feet and just when you thought there is no hope, shines and lives you with a positive hopeful outcome.
What a shame almost no one on this planet saw this movie as of now.
It didn't get a proper release, but it should have. Peel is a low-budget indie film with a bunch of heart and very good performances, and it doesn't try too hard to be emotional. Emile Hirsch is great in this.
Overall there was potential here for an even better story but it's worth seeing still and I definitely recommend it to anyone who likes a cute and fun flick with something to say. It's a good time.
