One of the funniest movies I've ever seen!
I just saw this movie this past Sunday at the Sonoma International Film Festival, and I laughed and laughed and laughed--along with the rest of the audience. I highly recommend this movie. Hollywood needs to take notice of this kind of comedy (low-key, and yet outrageous at the same time; definitely not "lowest common denominator" humour) which is so much funnier than the generic mainstream comedies which tend to make their way to the multiplexes. To watch some video clips of this movie, go to the official site:

Then click on "CLIPS" to the left of the guitar. Then click on any of the three clip images on the right side of the screen. The first clip is of the first few minutes of this movie. I don't think it's the funniest part of this movie, but it will give you a sense of the humour. The third clip is of the main character performing one of his "folk satire" songs--hilarious! This movie is all about enjoying this main character who's this mellow, very likable musician who gets into absurd circumstances once he takes his act to Los Angeles. I really hope this movie gets a theatrical release. At any rate, keep a watch out for it in theatres and/or on dvd.
