As usual, Michael Leoni does not disappoint. It's an emotional roller coaster that truly shows the unfair price many have had to pay to get to the dream they thought they wanted. The cast did an amazing job of vividly painting this picture. When a story needs to be told, Leoni tells it. An absolute must see!

I actually really liked this one and there's nothing fake about me or my opinion. Especially resonates if you ever lived in LA. Different Strokes for different folks.

I actually saw this production on stage before it was a film. I kind of liked the production of it better as a stage performance. The use of lighting and creativity in the set design was so impressive on the stage. I think it loses a little of that on the screen.

The story itself, though, is one you've always heard whispered about in Hollywood. One of the untold, but certainly not secret, truths about Hollywood kids. The exploitation of these kids not just by the business, but often by their own parents and people they're supposed to be able trust, people meant to protect them. It's horrible, really. This film does a good job of telling the truth of the story - showing the gritty through the glam.

This movie was a stage play that was so creatively shot, that alone is reason enough to see this film. Add in the incredibly powerful and important message and great acting makes this a must see indie film.

After seeing this staged in Los Angeles and absolutely loving it, I was nervous to see its realization in film format. It's like reading a book and seeing the film after, right? Rarely going to be a positive transition.

That is why this was such a unique experience! It made me so happy that the powerful story that I saw on stage had the same strong impact on me as a film.

I have seen other projects done by this creative team, and they consistently have a strong social impact, while keeping me raptly entertained I'm definitely going to keep watching.
