Last Call at Murray's (2016)

Last Call at Murray’s: Directed by Linda Palmer. With Michael Gross, John Savage, Rachel Alig, Paula Jai Parker. Dwindling clientele and new smoking ordinances have forced veteran bar-owner Murray to make a tough decision: it’s time to close the bar. However, Murray’s hopes for a quiet closing are dashed when a freak blizzard whips through, stranding a host of zany people all night. Between drinks and karaoke, alliances are formed, broken, and blown sky-high. A new life comes into the world, and an old one leaves. And when the plows finally arrive in the morning, no one goes home the same.

“This film is really, really good – writing, directing, acting – you name it I liked it all. The story moved at a good pace, not too fast or too slow, and there was a lot of range in the characters. Itu0026#39;s rare for a film set in only one location to have so many layers and levels but this film did it very well. The technical aspects were flawless, music was great – nothing sucked. I especially liked that the storyline was not predictable in any way, and that it always kept the viewer surprised by what would happen next. The film ended on a positive note, and I left the theater feeling better than when I went in – the sign of a truly great film. I KNOW you will get distribution and full theatrical release – no doubt in my mind. Way to go – home run!!! Thank you very much for sharing this film and bringing it to the world!”
