From Academy Award winning director
Ray McKinnon, comes RANDY AND THE MOB, a feel-good, slice
of Southern life comedy. It's the story of good ol' boy Randy Pearson
(McKinnon), who can't seem to help getting in over his head. His
latest scheme to keep his businesses afloat goes awry when a long-standing
debt becomes due to a couple of low level Italian mobsters. Randy's
forced to swing into action, but his only hope is a helping hand
from his carpal-tunneled, baton-teaching wife (Golden Globe Nominee
Lisa Blount); his estranged, gay twin brother (also played by McKinnon),
and "Tino Armani" (The Shield's Walton Goggins), a mysterious
modern day prophet with a knack for high fashion, Italian cooking
and clogging.
Winner of the Audience Choice Award at the 2007 Nashville
Film Festival and shot on location in and around Atlanta by all
Southern filmmakers, RANDY AND THE MOB is a powerful reminder
of the strength of Southern roots, where love and family can usually
be counted on to trump all adversities. Coming to theaters starting
September 21st.
RANDY AND THE MOB is distributed by Capricorn Pictures (an
off-shoot of the seminal Southern rock label Capricorn Records),
founded by Benjy Griffith and the late Phil Walden to establish
a creative home for talented Southern filmmakers. A companion soundtrack
will be released through Lakeshore Records, featuring a score by
John Swihart (NAPOLEON DYNAMITE) and songs from numerous other artists. |
