A True Story is a film within a film...within a film, as we see the real side of Hollywood as lived in by struggling actors. The story is not, however, inclusive to the LA scene. It's a story about resisting temptation and maintaining integrity. It's about keeping track of what's really important in life, the people that really love you and would do anything for you, however imperfect they might be.

Mike (Cameron Fife) and Matt (Tyler McGee), are best friends and roommates who have struggled as actors for two and a half years.

Along the way they have been able to write a screenplay, a vehicle for them both, which they are sure will lead them to success. They even have a perspective buyer, Jason (Malcolm Goodwin), a friend from the neighborhood who is the assistant to the big time Hollywood producer Richard Simpkins (Jon Gries).

It is soon apparent the script they have written is actually an allegory for their own lives. Meanwhile, Mike's ex- girlfriend Deanna (Katrina Bowden) has suddenly moved into town, and is trying to re-kindle her relationship with Mike.

Mike and Matt's struggles are now more than just where their next meal will come from, as they fight to not only keep themselves attached to their script, but also to remain friends through the turmoil brought on by both greedy Hollywood producers and slutty ex- girlfriends.

I got a chance to see the behind the scenes of this project! This is shot beautifully and directed like a master. Then I saw the premiere and I was very impressed with the way the whole piece came together! Awesome work 1st team! way to be gorillas filmakers!!!

I saw this at the premier in SF and I laughed my ass off! Such a great movie. The characters feel so real, something lacking from so many films these days, and the story is not some hollywood cookie-cutter BS. It feels very real and is full of the hopes and emotions of the main characters. One of my favorites so far this year!!

I was invited to the screening but couldn't go... After seeing this trailer I am very bummed that I didn't go. Great job guys. This trailer makes me want to see the film.

I saw the movie recently and loved it. It is such a nice change to find a comedy that isn't about stupid people doing stupid things. It really is about the relationship between two struggling screewriters trying to make it in Hollywood. It was first a play so expect a lot of clever and funny dialogue. All the actors are good-looking too. I loved how the ending is really the beginning. Ingenious.

Saw the film at opening premiere. There are no other words to describe it ... "Awesome!"
