Together and Alone

Noted writer-actor Duane Whitaker (EDDIE PRESLEY, PULP FICTION) steps into the director s chair with this darkly comic 1998 black-and-white ensemble gem (American Cinematheque) about a night in the life of Hollywood hopefuls and has-beens. Stories intertwine as the characters slog their way through dubious acting classes, bomb at stand-up and obsess over their sex lives at the local coffee shop. But don t mistake this for THE PLAYER, this motley crew is much further down the food chain. Also starring Joe Estevez, Thomas Draper, Daniel Roebuck, Joe Unger, John Bishop, Casey Siemaszko, Tim Thomerson and Mariah O'Brien.
