Jimmy Hollywood
“One thing stands between Jimmy and stardom. Reality.”
Comedy
Jimmy Alto is an actor wannabe who stumbles into the role of a lifetime. He becomes a vigilante crime-fighter, aided by his sidekick William, who has suffered a head wound and has problems with short-term memory. Jimmy's vigilante alter ego soon becomes a media wonder--but Jimmy remains a total unknown and his long-suffering girl friend Lorraine is getting fed up with the whole situation.
VIBE
A darkly comedic, character-driven dive into the absurdities of Hollywood and the desperate pursuit of recognition. It's a frustratingly charming, low-key exploration of ambition gone awry, wrapped in a distinctly 90s indie vibe.
