Although they give this film a happy ending, it is real enough for a while to make anyone who was effected by the nose-dive the finanical/mortgage/investment sector took in 2009 uncomfortable. I can remember when more than half the people I knew were out of work for more than a matter of months. Qualified, well-to-do, educated people… simply could not find a job. I myself remember being used by several companies to help them form plans that they later hired “interns” to carry out because I was too expensive. It was a hideous time and we still aren’t quite clear of it, but even so or perhaps because of this.. the film was captivating though they focused mainly on the MALE experience, it was still interesting to see a story set in that time period (being that it is recent history and for some, not history at all)….
The feel good ending keeps it from being a total bummer..
As you know, I have been closely following the shooting and production of this awesome film and I am very excited to share the first theatrical trailer. Please talk to your local theater manager’s and request to have it in your area!

Food Trucks Have Gone Gourmet in L.A. and We Love It!
If you live anywhere in Los Angeles, you have no doubt eaten off a “Taco Truck” in the past for a quick lunch or a late night grab after clubbing or working late, but chances are before 2010, you didn’t follow your Taco Truck on Twitter, Track who was eating there on Foursquare or FAN it on Facebook. With the invention of these new tools and the resurgence of Street Food Integrity, Food Trucks are making a huge comeback and lines are around the block!
As a kid I remember seeing the trucks parked in the neighborhood, silver or white usually with a name hand painted across the sides. They were usually surrounded by Men mostly; ordering food, eating. laughing, standing around. When I entered the work-force, the trucks were a lunchtime inevitability, people joked about grabbing a burrito or taco off the “Roach Coach” which left an indellible image in my mind that I needed to overcome to enjoy the new level of Street Food available now. This is not your Father’s Food Truck. Continue Reading
