The Pimp of Park Avenue
Red-hot television comedy writer, Jake Kelmer, is living the fast life. Money, women
and a condo on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, with a sure feeling that the
nouveaux riche ride will last forever. But when his smash-hit show is pulled from
the air, he must confront the possibility of a poorer tomorrow. Faced with the
choice of going under, or of getting a real job, Kelmer does what any reasonable
entertainer should do: he connects his flexible-but-desperate actress friends with
eligible widowers, and collects a handsome finder’s fee. Is he a straight-up pimp, or
a companionship broker? And if he is a pimp, what are the chances of a by-the-book
vice cop shoving a big plug into Kelmer’s plans? In a tale that winds its way through
New York City with the grittiness of a brand-new finger nail file, “The Pimp of Park
Avenue” proves that the truth, not sex, is the most precious commodity of all.
Weekend Getaway
Family patriarch Howard always thought that the weekend house he bought in
the 1960s would be the place where his family would spend time together for
years to come. Today, however, the picturesque setting in the Vermont woods
is where members of the May family pursue their individual and self-centered
goals. Daughter Caitlin uses the cabin to escape into her work, son-in-law Julian
as the romantic backdrop for his love trysts, and grandson Marshall as the perfect
hideaway for his recreational drug use. A rainy spring weekend would be no
exception, were it not for poor communication, which results in the family members
arriving on the same night. Upon learning of the unlikely family reunion, Howard
makes an unscheduled appearance in order to break through the façade of lies
and false relationships his family presents him with. But, as the night wears on, it
becomes clear that pursuing the truth is a two-way street -- for Howard, the most
aggressive truth-seeker of them all, may harbor the biggest secret.
