Joey Breaker Trailers

Joey is a player, a hot-shot movie agent in New York. If a deal can be made, he'll make it. If a rising talent can be snapped up, he'll be the first in line. And when it comes to luring Hollywood in a bidding war for a script nobody's read, Joey is your man. Joey's definitely cruising in the fast lane. Bu there's one thing Joey has never taken the time to do... live. Joey's programmed life is turned topsy-turvy by a series of unexpected events which culminates in a serendipitous romance with a throughly remarkable young Jamaican woman.

It's so nice to see a film that genuinely has a lot of heart and wit but isn't mushy or terminally quirky! I can't imagine how anyone could dislike this film, unless they miss mind-numbing sit-com exploitation. The characters are real and likable, and they are seen living in the world that surrounds them, as well as their own lives, which in this case are dominated by work and status. There's really no other film like this (maybe that's why it has such a low rating? How people love to cling to their formula movies - sigh!). It's not a "great" film, but it's as wonderful as spending an evening with friends who you know are genuine, and are great fun to be with. And hey, Philip Seymour Hoffman is in it. What more is there to say?

Quirky, low-budget film that I first saw at a small film festival. Although the script sometimes descends to cliches, this film skillfully contrasts the sometimes-empty life of an agent with that of his clients, his friends, and his love interest. The "B" story line of Joey Breaker's involvement in a worthy cause was predictable, though well-handled. Worth a look if one's taste tends toward the offbeat. More mature than the film "Zebrahead" which also addressed interracial love and its challenges.
