The Crumbles (2012)

The Crumbles: Directed by Akira Boch. With Katie Hipol, Teresa Michelle Lee, Ebony Perry, Jeff Torres. An indie rock slice-of-life tragic-comedy about two young female musicians struggling with the ups and downs of being in the world’s greatest band – that no one’s ever heard of.

“After I saw the picture I immediately purchased the movie on Amazon as well as the sound track which was available at the showing. The mixture of the actors/actresses ethnically played well with the areas the movie was shot in as well as the character development without the use of stereotypes (a relief, given the usage of stereotypes in movies and TV shows currently). I thoroughly enjoyed the interaction between all of the characters in the film, although a few of them seemed fairly contrived and taken to extremes (must have been all of the IPA consumed during the film). Overall the film was very entertaining, had a very realistic ending and was over with well before I wanted it to end. If you like rock and roll and would like to get a hint of what it is really like (not the euphemistic plots hurled at us in most other movies) being an aspiring musician or you just want to be entertained for a while, this is the movie for you.”
