The film, written and directed by Bob Byington, stars Schwartzman as Larry, an inebriated sad sack who rides a tide of booze onto the shores of an undiscriminating Quick-Lube. The only bright spot is probably his boss, Lupe (Eleanore Pienta). Will he keep it together long enough to win the girl, provide for his French bulldog, laze about with his friend Major (TV on the Radio’s Adebimpe), and do his cantankerous grandmother (Olympia Dukakis) proud?
