This movie had a budget 500 times the size of the last one I saw: A hundred grand! A fortune!
Sean Baker sure is good at making movies that jump into conflicting emotions without losing track of the story.
I live less than ten miles from where this was shot. I’ve walked those exact blocks many times. I can’t tell you how many times I drove past the doughnut shop at the center of this movie and made a joke about it being Donut Time.
Side note: RIP Donut Time. I believe I might have actually been inside once. I hope your current life as Danny Trejo’s doughnut shop is going well.
Today’s poster parody felt like the obvious choice.
