Movie Info

Actor Steven Antin wrote the screenplay, and U.S.C. film professor Jefery Levy directed this self-absorbed trifle about a self-absorbed screenwriter and his nutty family and friends. Antin plays Monkey Zetterland, an innocuous young man who is trying to work on his screenplay -- something having to do with the defunct Los Angeles streetcar system -- while a collection of relatives, friends, and neighbors continually interrupt him.

A charming, sharply written comedy set in L.A., infused with sophisticated gay sensibility.

A really good Independent film about a man with a life full of twists and turns. Steve Antin stars as Monkey Zetterland, Patricia Arquette, and the rest of the cast make this film enjoyable to watch.

**1/2 (out of four) Little independent film with Steve Antin as a young man named Monkey. He is at the center of a circus called the Zetterland family. They are mostly wacko. The strong cast, consisiting of Katherine Helmond, Patricia Arquette, Rupert Everett, Bo Hopkins, and Martha Plimpton, do their best with the so-so material.
