Who's in it: Lisa Kudrow, Scott Prendergast

What's it about: Jobs come and go for Salman(Prendergast). He gets a call to come to Leslie's(Kudrow), his sister-in-law, house in order to help her with her two sons while her husband is at war in Iraq. The two boys are a huge handful and one threatens to kill Salman, and is serious. Salman gets a job working at BluNeXion, an Internet website. His job is to stand on the side of an old road and give out flyers. The costume he is required to wear gets him a job at a children's party. Here he connects with his nephews as another person. When, Salman learns that Leslie is cheating on his brother, he is determined to prove that his brother is the one for her

What I Think: I found this movie just browsing the shelves. I had never heard of it before, but when I walked by, the case just jumped into my arms. I wasn't sure why, but I was immediately drawn to the movie. I had one of the strongest connections with Prendergast and his character. I felt like I truely knew him in real life. The story was really good and the music that was associated with the movie was perfect. Kudrow was in a different element I thought and I was impressed with her talent and flexibility. Prendergast wrote, directed, and starred in the movie and I found that truely impressive. He did an amazing job and I hope to see him in more movies. The cover art was very intelligent. It might not look like much, but the colour scheme and using complimentary colours is was really jumped out at me.
