Quotes
Ray Wentworth: No, I am a cynic.
Gundy: No, I am a cynic. You are cynical. There is a difference. I never believed in the first place, but you, you wake up every morning disappointed to find the world the way it is, because you are a dreamer. Write the card, Raymond.

Quirky at Best

This was a short fairly low budget picture that got made due to Bob Odenkirk and his name after Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. If we had to see the Los Angeles river flood channel (or whatever they call it) one more time I was going to scream. The city must charge very little to shoot there at it was almost a character. I found a few places to laugh but not enough to recommend this as a comedy. It is an offbeat quirky picture with some nice scenes but nothing more. The one standout performance was Amber Tamblyn as Jill.
