Film Buff Friday: My Way

Grrrrrrrrrrl Power!

A collision of Anvil! The Story of Anvil meets Thelma and Louise

"Adding to the authenticity are onscreen comments by rockers

Steven Adler (Guns N' Roses), Rikki Rockett (Poison) and Chip Z'Nuff (Enuff Z'Nuff)"

- The Hollywood Reporter

Meet Rebekah Starr, a small-town girl stuck in a mid-western corporate life. Yearning to break free, she ditches her briefcase for a Les Paul guitar and hits the highway. Destination? Los Angeles' famed rock 'n' roll Sunset Strip.

Although Rebekah's marriage is failing, this is not some alternate fantasy life she's escaping to--it's her burning passion for music that can no longer be suppressed. On her journey, she serendipitously meets and befriends rock legends Steven Adler (Guns N' Roses) and Rikki Rockett (Poison).

A witness to the power of passion and aspiration, My Way chronicles the hugely entertaining path one woman takes to pursue her seemingly impossible dream.

"Rebekah Starr is the perfect protagonist; she is a gutsy feminist and a talented musician. Audiences will be glad she made a bold statement by waking up one morning, and escaping her stagnant life!"
-- Independent Film Quarterly

After winning 5 top awards on the film festival circuit and receiving a theatrical release in New York City and Los Angeles, My Way now comes to DVD & VOD on 11/4.

"★★★★ A kick ass girl movie with a side of rock star!"
-- Santa Ana Movie Examiner

"A good film filled with... adventure, sex, fun and music!"
-- StageBuddy.com

The DVD can be ordered now at the MVD Shop or on Amazon.

Guns N' Roses "Leave Your Ugly Friends At Home"

No Plus Ones
Guns N' Roses

"She's got a smile it seems to me, Reminds me of childhood memories" - Sweet Child Of Mine, Guns N' Roses

One of my favorite rock groups evah, Guns N Roses have reunited and hit the road. They recently played Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.

Well since LA is the city of illusion the aging Casanova's team shot off an E-mail to Photogenics a modeling agency based in the City of Angels extending an invite to every female model on their roster.

The first fifty got free seats in the first couple of rows, backstage passes and a coveted spot on the guest list to the after party at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.

Rule of accepting this invite no plus ones, only models. Marketing at it's finest.

In the immortal words of AC/DC: Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap!
