FOR A GOOD TIME, CALL …. Movie Review

Movies September 7, 2012




Short-film director Jamie Travis and writers Katie Anne Naylon and Lauren Miller really brought what I would call a prime example of the indie funny-side without the emblematic and conventional Hollywood plot lines, to this hilarious new take on female raunchy comedy. At first glance, this flick seems to simply be a vulgar comedy about phone sex and poking fun at today’s sexual innuendos. However, beneath the surface it’s a warmhearted frolic about good-natured female friendship and is more about self-discovery and coming in to sexual maturity with a humorous twist, than anything else.

Lauren Anne Miller, not only co-writes and produces this comical sexually charged flick, but also plays the understated non-prissy literary editor Lauren Powell who soon finds herself kicked to the curb by her live-in boyfriend, immediately homeless, shamefully jobless and facing options that are suddenly very limited. Her character seems genuine in her approach to the changes that are taking place and gives a very sweet, girl-next-door, feel to the movie. She evolves graciously and is delightful and witty throughout the entire eighty-five minute film. READ FULL REVIEW
