Synopsis:
Anthony and Carmine Marconi, a modern day odd-couple, have been dutifully serving out life sentences in the family carpet business. Their opportunity to escape occurs during a routine carpet installation, when they meet Lou Burns the undisputed king of the Long Island wedding video business. Mesmerized by Lou's fast talk and leggy blonde 'secretaries,' the brothers hustle themselves jobs as his new assistants and set off to make it big in the "movie biz". Director's Bio:
Cousins Michael Canzoniero and Marco Ricci's short film, Pishadoo, was well received on the festival circuit and was purchased by Canal Plus Europe, Sundance Channel, Atom Films and United Airlines. Their last short film, Hyper, was chosen for the Centerpiece of the New York Film Festival, where it opened for P.T. Anderson's Punch Drunk Love. This is their first feature as directors. |
