Los Angeles Overnight

The guy who directed this movie worked most recently in the CASTING DEPARTMENT for Hell's Kitchen. You did not mis-read. I said Casting Department.

Just gos to show you that Hollywood is truly Hollyweird.

The movie is pretentious and I think Bogdonovich is wearing a very fake stick on mustache. I only continued watching this movie to see the externals of L.A. The acting sucks.

The writing is atrocious. The basic concept is not horrible, but the writer is a bad writer and the director should never get behind a camera again. I have a feeling (pure conjecture) that Bogdonovich is teaching a film course and these clowns were in his class qnd somehow convinced him to be in the movie. Once he was attached to it, it would have been easy to get the funding.

BTW the blood used in this movie looks like red paint.

It's a very hard movie to watch because it's so bad.

I saw an early screening of LOS ANGELES OVERNIGHT. Gorgeous and gritty, this love/hate letter to Los Angeles taps into the zeitgeist to reveal the darkside of Tinseltown. Compelling, unexpected, with a stand-out style.

This movie gets better and better as it progresses. The ending is magnificent. If you like low-budget, neo-noirs, as much as I do give this a watch. The director, Michael Chrisoulakis is not afraid to allow the story to progress without superfluous dialogue. There a a couple of times he respects the audience enough to have no dialogue and have the visuals do the story telling. Great way to spend roughly and hour and a half.

This indie film is weird, intense and unusual. It definitely fits into the dark noir category. Starts out as the simple story of an aspiring actress just trying to make ends meet and blossoms into an off-beat kind of crime story thriller. The characters are quirky and unusual. The protagonist, Priscilla, is played by Arielle Brachfeld. She plays an aspiring actress who will literally stop at nothing to get ahead. The casting director, Elsa, is a rude, brutally offensive character and is well played by JamieLee Ackerman. This movie definitely has the right ingredients to become a cult film.

Throughly enjoyed this unique take on the Noir genre set in present day Los Angeles. The movie boasts some stellar performances by Lynn Shaye and Peter Bogdanovich. So amazing to see what this truly indie film pulled off on a micro budget. Look out for director, Michael Chrisoulakis and writer, Guy J. Jackson who both are tremendous talents. Do yourself a favor and check out this film for a true Lynchian homage.
