Movie Description Wilton (Def - BAMBOOZLED) and A.J. (Livingston - EDTV) aspire to be great documentary filmmakers--however, in the wake of their failed debut WATER IN THE APPLE, about New York's water system, they are having trouble getting anyone in the film industry to take them seriously. Determined to make it, they begin working on their next project, a sure-fire winner about private detectives in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, their poor instincts lead them to choose Joe Boone (Ferrer - TWIN PEAKS: FIRE WALK WITH ME)--a bumbling detective who can't seem to find his way around the city, let alone solve any cases--as their subject. With the cameras rolling, the incompetent detective takes the would-be filmmakers on a bumbling, wild goose chase throughout Los Angeles in this offbeat, "reel-life" mockumentary.
Industry Reviews "...Miguel Ferrer does a nice job as the private eye..." New York Times - Anita Gates (11/13/1999)
"...Pyne shifts the tone and trajectory of this ramshackle script with wonderful randomness....Pyne manages to pull off an emotional depth and warm humor..." Chicago Sun-Times - Bill Stamets (11/12/1999)
