Movie Details Click Here!Storyline: This is the story of an extremely obese, rather immature, yet very bright and talented young man, and of his world and the people in it... mostly homeless young adults... who refer to their lives and where they live as their individual "planets," and everyone else as "refugees." But there are problems in his world, where a talent for the piano has been reduced to playing Chopin on a piano that has had the strings cut by his mother out of frustration at his incessant practicing... the same mother who now requires him to be there to administer her insulin shots. Still, because he is a 'good boy', he plays on the soundless piano, and takes weekly lessons from a piano teacher so eccentric that she will only allow him to strum out the notes on her dining room table... until, like real planets when other bodies get too close, he finds himself pulled and moved in a different direction.—BOB STEBBINS <stebinsbob@aol.com>

Movie Details Click Here!Storyline: In this comedy-drama Cece is the pretty, grownup daughter of a former 1970s "blaxploitation" movie sexpot, and when she tries to carve out her own fledgling acting career she vows that she won't become famous by taking all her clothes off, the way her mother did. But straightaway Cece is cast in a small-time screen drama playing a painter's model--and the role calls for extensive nudity. Will she or won't she strip for the (male) director, the (male) screenwriter, and their cameras? First-time filmmaker Davis was obviously working with a budget hardly bigger than Cece's film-within-a-film, and some gaffes slip through in the production values. But it's also a sly feminist farce that addresses the hypocrisy surrounding the last taboo in cinema: keeping your clothing on.
