Synopsis
In this quirky comedy, Tobe (Dustin Ingram, perfectly cast), an awkward teenage aficionado of 1980s soft-core, sets off in his grandfather’s (Brian Dennehy) used Weinermobile to see his sexual idol perform at a strip club in Indiana. After defending her honor against ruffians who taunt the aging erotic starlet (Kim Cattrall) off the stage, he negotiates his unripe romantic impulses with the reality of her anything but glamorous life as a trailer-park single mother. —Tribeca Film Festival

Kim Cattrall rises way above the material here as a former porn star who is way beyond down on her luck.A fan of her thirty year old films finds her in the middle of nowhere (Indiana) and what should be a coming of age story or comedy doesn't wind up being much of anything. Dustin Ingram is just awful in this Napoleon Dynamite want-to-be role and sinks the film. Unfortunate that Cattrall is so far beyond the script.
