Synopsis

The film starts with the slogan: "Welcome to Hollywood... where dreams come true. Or do they?" And the film has the solution: "If at first you don't succeed, try again... and again... and again...!"

It tells the story of a young Los Angeles artist Jackson, who is faced with rejection at every turn both as an actor and as the writer of his first screenplay. His best friends Chris and Disco have always managed to put a positive spin on his failures. He loses his keys, his wallet, his job and his girlfriend. It's his worst week ever. And it's Monday! But now, after meeting Amy who has a job that puts her in direct contact with big stars, Jackson decides on his next "dream"... his first ever low-budget short film will involve a main role, for, of all people, George Clooney.

Jackson is then caught between a desire to succeed... and a desire to take care of the one person who has truly taken care of him. Convincing Clooney is a movie about not just making it, but the unpredictable road taken to get there.

Cast

gollark: <@160279332454006795> What if dictionary explaining apioforms and such on hpageâ„¢?
gollark: Given the temporal omnipresence of apioforms I *guess* they could be considered nostalgic, at least?
gollark: This is not accurate.
gollark: > The aesthetic commonly features nostalgic characters and properties, usually popular in the early 2000s or '90s (ex. Hello Kitty, Care Bears, or Furbies). Lighting plays a huge aspect in weirdcore, for example, a bright and happy seeming place with a strange, uncomforting, undertone, or a slightly darkened place, representing memories. Weirdcore has broad overlap with Old Web, Kidcore, and Nostalgiacore as it often uses the same nostalgic motifs, just in a bizarre way. Weirdcore also uses low-quality images (Dithered, and in some cases old camcorder effects) to give the viewer a feeling of early 2000s photography.
