Trust Me

Synopsis

Danny Marrs is a, fast-talking, quick-thinking, twenty-something small town grifter who comes to Hollywood with a big smile, and a 'wannabe' girlfriend. When Danny runs into Joe Schmolensky, a middle-aged janitor obsessed with old movies and a gift for impressions, he sees opportunity.

Despite Joes misgivings the two men embark on a series of hilarious misadventures that expose them to a world of greedy, colourful characters; including a Hollywood agent, a debt collector, a wallflower secretary, a Russian gangster, a porn director, a computer geek and megalomaniacal TV executives.

Trust Me is a smart and funny look at the entertainment industry, politics and America's obsession with fame. It will make you laugh, think and sigh, 'Only in America'. Trust Me!
