‘Lyle’, Cool Concept, Poor Execution.
The idea of Rosemary's baby but with lesbian partners drew me in, and I was anticipating what the film had in store with its reimagining. Unfortunately, it all felt a little too vague to leave an impact.
The Money Shot (2005)
Stan and Eddie are two simple guys. They live simple lives, work simple jobs, and make simple movies. That is, until the day they dream of creating the impossible and bringing to life the greatest of all cinematic myths: the porno with a plot. With new-found hope, the two armed with only a camera and their determination enlist the help of friends and strangers alike as they embark on an insane race against time to complete their cinematic masterpiece and earn their place in the books of celluloid glory. Will Stan and Eddie persevere and create the unimaginable and take top honors at the Harbor Film Festival? Or will they crash and burn?
