Award Winning Indie film "Love, Lust, & A Room Key" Headed to Amazon Prime

Starring: Aiden Simko, James Pomichter, Rami Paulus, Laura Liguori, Lindsey Grubbs, Diana Hopper, John Bain

With the hottest happy hour in town, The Builtman Hotel sets the stage for raw tales about love. And for playboy bartender, Harry, it can't get much hotter than hooking up with his sexy bar manager, Anna. After nearly getting caught, Harry returns to the bar on this night to meet a young, newly engaged couple, Carter and Ryleigh. Both a bit tipsy and carefree, they lure Harry into their debate about what our most primal needs are as human beings. Machismo Carter sets the tone for this indie drama, proclaiming, "everyone wants to be seduced, it's our most basic necessity", and poses the notion that, while society has indeed evolved, our primal needs will forever remain the same. "Love, Lust, & A Room Key" allows us to peel the roof back and a take a peek into the lives of eight sets of characters and their issues of intimacy and seduction, loneliness and infidelity, passion and sex, and the need for love. Meanwhile, Harry's perspective is challenged as Anna threatens to break off their romantic encounters unless he can see that there is more to life than "spreading his seed". Passion has it limits, love has none, and for Ryleigh, a heart wrenching realization turns her world upside down, as Carter may not be as perfect as he seems.

Best Drama Short Film of 2017: "Hollywood Girl: The Peg Entwistle Story" (Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival)

LOS ANGELES, California- Inspired by true events, “Hollywood Girl: The Peg Entwistle Story, is based the on tragic ending of film actress & Broadway muse, Peg Entwistle. Peg is most remembered as the starlet who leapt off the Hollywood(land) sign in the midst of the great depression and on the verge of her own career breakthrough in 1932.

The film is being praised for evoking emotional empathy for the beautiful and talented young actress whose memory lives on as the “Hollywood Sign Girl”. The story follows Peg in the last days, hours of her life, and her untimely tragic death.

Actress, producer Laura Liguori, who stars as Entwistle, conceived the idea for the film while sitting on her balcony looking up at the Hollywood sign after receiving news that she had lost a role she had anticipated getting.

Liguori states, “Optimism is the key to success in this industry, because rejection is all too common. I’ve learned to keep my head up, be grateful for what comes and let go of what passes. As long as you give your best effort, your dreams will not fail you.”

Filmmaker, James Pomichter, of Arcane Pacific Entertainment, brought this film to life. James wrote and directed this poignant story, the first of its kind. An actor himself, he hopes to honor Entwistle’s life story.

“In the days following her suicide, the media had unfairly labeled her as a failed actress, printing her story in a very negative light. However, that’s not how I chose to portray Peg. I wanted to show her as a vulnerable, passionate young woman, who fell victim to despair as so many others did at that time.” He said.

The film also stars, veteran actor, Michael Rotthaar in an award worthy performance as “Uncle Charles” and includes cameos from Maureen Teefy (Grease 2, Fame, Supergirl), Will Rotthaar (Battle Los Angeles, Killing Kennedy), and Dan Riordan (Dream Girls, Ed Wood).

Composer, music producer, James Emley contributes to the story with an original score. “I wanted to invoke an era and capture its nostalgic jazz melodies. For the climax, it was about giving a rich and emotional soundscape to Peg’s tragic arc.” He said

On a final note, “we hope others can remember Peg for more than just a ghost that haunts the Hollywood sign, but as a great talent that should have stayed with us just a little while longer. We invite the public to celebrate Peg’s legacy,” says Pomichter.
