Testosterone
(2004)
Dean Seagrave (David Sutcliffe), a
brilliant graphic novelist with writer's block, hasn`t been
himself lately. Not long ago his sex-bomb Argentine lover Pablo
(Antonio Sabato, Jr.) left their California beach house on a
cigarette run, and he hasn't been seen since. This exodus is
particularly complicated for Dean because Pablo was meant to be
the answer to all of Dean`s problems. That was the plan, anyway.
Unable to work, sleep or even drag a razor across his face, Dean
does what any self-respecting romantic would do in this situation:
he blows off his deadline, throws some clothes in a bag and books
a flight on Aerolineas, Argentinas. Destination: Closure. Once in
Buenos Aires, Dean tries to track down his beloved Pablo, but this
proves more difficult than he anticipated. In addition to the
language barrier, Dean gradually discovers that practically
everyone he encounters - from Pablo`s domineering mother (Sonia
Braga) to the beautiful cafי owner Sofia (Celina Font), all
the way to a guy he picks up in a bookstore (Leonardo Brzezicki) -
is not what they seem. By the time Dean and Pablo are re-united,
the lines between art and life, resolution and revenge, man and
maniac, have all gone fuzzy. Dean abandons all better judgment,
and with his broken heart practically leaking blood and
testosterone pumping through his veins, he puts a machete on his
credit card and heads off to have one last talk with Pablo.

A
Mighty Wind (2003)
Formed in the 1960's, the Folksmen
(Guest, McKean, Shearer) were a key group in the "Great Folk
Music Scare", meeting as freshmen at Ohio Wesleyan College,
and touring for 26 months as a folk trio, singing a unique type of
"eclectified folk" music. It wasn't meant to last,
however, and the three musicians went their separate ways. Now,
thirty years later, they've reunited for a comeback tour of sorts,
as long as the folk festivals they're playing at are within a
day's travel of their homes, all of which leads up to a climactic
memorial concert at Carnegie Hall following the death of a
legendary folk music promoter, where they reunite with two other
folk groups. In the tradition of This is Spinal Tap (an aging
heavy metal band), Waiting for Guffman (a small town theater
group), and Best in Show (the Westminster Dog Show), this is a
mocking look at the world of folk music.

East-Coast blue blood family. So, when Warner packs up for Harvard
Law and reunites with an old sweetheart from prep school, Elle
rallies all her resources and gets into Harvard, determined to win

Best
in Show (2000)
Christopher Guest brings his
unique brand of lunacy to the screen with another mockumentary in
the tradition of WAITING FOR GUFFMAN. This one, BEST IN SHOW, is
about purebred dog owners feverishly competing for their pets to
be named Best in Show at the Mayflower Kennel Club Dog Show. Using
many of the same actors who starred in WAITING FOR GUFFMAN--a
spoof on the society surrounding the stage--Guest peoples BEST IN
SHOW with hilarious, frighteningly real characters played by
Catherine O' Hara, Eugene Levy, Fred Willard, and indie stalwart
Parker Posey, among others. As the cutthroat competition heats up,
the film becomes delightfully absurd. The contestants are
hilarious. They include Gerry Fleck, a tacky suburbanite, and his
overly popular wife, Cookie; Hamilton and Meg Swan, who are
unbalanced, yuppie lawyers with terrible teeth; and Scott Donlan
and Stefan Vanderhoof, flamboyant longtime companions who fiercely
cheer on their canines while keeping their hearts set on the
championship title. A reminder that people often bear an uncanny
resemblance to their dogs, BEST IN SHOW takes a funny look at an
even funnier business.

A
Night at the Roxbury (1998)
It may have taken the Butabi
Brothers seven years to graduate high school, but by now they've
realized there's more to life than working in their father's silk
plant store. Their goal is to get into L.A.'s #1 night spot -- the
elegant Roxbury Club -- and become movers and shakers in today's
happening night club scene. Steve and Doug are determined to prove
that for the first time in their lives, they are really worth
something. They set out to prove their manhood by going through
the ultimate rite of passage, getting into the A-club -- the
Roxbury -- and maybe, someday, even running a club of their own.
But they're not on the Roxbury's guest list, so Doug and Steve are
stuck on the sidewalk -- as Doug complains, "A-club people
leading a B-club life" -- until they roll into a fender
bender with a club regular, litigation-phobic actor Richard Grieco,
who escorts them right into the Roxbury! They make contact with
the Roxbury's successful and influential owner, Mr. Za! dir, who
agrees to a meeting to discuss their "bound-to-happen"
concepts for new clubs. That same night at the Roxbury, Doug and
Steve get picked-up by a pair of fortune-hunters, Cambi and Vivica,
who mistake them for fat cats.
