Good Movie looking forward to see a Part 2! See more 07/21/2014 I really loved the originality of this film. It is not your typical movie. It felt honest and sincere in giving the viewer a look inside the lives of unsung artists and creative types and their daily struggles in the shadows of "stars". Particularly artists of color. It challenges you to abandon stereotypical notions of who and what you think guys like these are when you pass them on the street. The film is filled with humor as well as heart. It's about trying to "make it", but not just in the so called "business", but also navigating relationships and life in general. It's a great Indy effort and I recommend seeing it. See more 07/19/2014 An American in Hollywood tells the story of the Trials and Tribulations a young band of wannabe's chasing their Hollywood dream. It tells the story well and you do identify with their troubles and terrors. What's good about it- The story telling is great. The plot weaves seamlessly into the "boysie" talk commentary which is told through a stand-up comedy show and a "girlsie" gossip session which provides a cynical commentary on the plot. The music is awesome and rhymes so unobtrusively into the script that by the time you understand what the songs were telling you and realize how well it was done you are into the next scene. The cast live parts and that's all you can ask for. What could have been better: The editing could have been more raspy and crisp for a movie like this. The dissolves and fade outs did not work for me. The superhero analogy was a good idea as was the voice-over but was a bit overdone. Final Verdict- The sincerity of the intent and the hard work shows through the lack of money and somewhat tacky look of the film. What shines through is the heart and soul of the film and the unique story telling style. If this is not enough Azur-De provides the "Drool Value". Go watch it, cheer for the independent movie makers and your dollars would be well spent. Way to go V-TwinZ...
