Suckers

Running time: N/A

Suckers is an absolutely hilarious comedy about the birth of a car salesman. Bobby (Louis Mandylor) and his lovely wife need cash to pay back a couple of shady loan sharks. But, as Bobby patiently explains, money isn't available for the asking, and he's looking for a career, not just a job. There's a difference, you know. Bobby's looking for a true calling. Unfortunately, loan sharks don't really care about long-term career satisfaction. Sacrifices must be made. Bobby grudgingly reports to work at a car lot, a neophyte salesman falling into the clutches of the scruple-less manager, Reggie (Daniel Benzali). The story is fast paced and engaging, with an unlikely edge and a wide variety of well-drawn characters. If you've ever wondered what those car salesmen say about you in the back room, take a look at director Roger Nygard's vision. Apparently they're not complimenting your hair. --Kristina Batiste
