Synopsis: This independent film stars Jason Swartzman as a man in search of answers to some of the universe's puzzling questions. He seeks the help of a wacky couple (Hoffman and Tomlin) who are self-proclaimed 'existentialists'. The film follows a variety of strange characters, who all find themselves linked to each other in some odd way.
Talk about a great film. I highly recommend that you catch this if you can. Despite the rumors of a difficult director, this project came together beautifully. If anything, check it out to see the hilarious turn of Mark Wahlberg in a surprising role (this had a Best Supporting Actor Golden Globe nomination written all over it).
