An independent film for which I wrote most of the songs.
Synopsis:
Recently fired from his job as an elevator operator, Charlie is in love
with the overweight Melody who loves him and lives with her foul-mouthed
mother, who hates him. Also
in the household is Melody’s brother Marty, a bad pseudo-stud whose best
friends with Charlie, and a large butcher named Joey Bag a Donuts.
Everybody’s crazy or unhappy, except the childlike Charlie, until
his father throws him out (in his pajamas) and he quickly becomes
homeless. Charlie’s
adventures in unemployment involve selling Sux-A-Lot vacuum cleaners,
being interviewed by a traumatized shoe salesman and having several
fantasy sequences before his luck finally changes.
