Synopsis: Harold Buttleman (John Hawkes, 'Deadwood') is a small town tuxedo salesman who thinks he's the next Evel Knievel. He is on the brink of TV stardom (a 3 a.m. spot on late night cable access), but the life of a daredevil stuntman is harder than it looks. Harold's parents want him to move out of their basement and his girlfriend wants him to settle into a career selling bathtub parts.

For Harold, it all depends on his big break - he gathers the entire town for his gala premiere celebration, but there's a surprise in store. An offbeat comedy about following your dreams, and the finer points of being shot out of a cannon. Also stars Anita Barone, Stephen Falk ('God, Inc'), Stephanie Jane Markham ('God, Inc'), Karen Black ('Easy Rider') and Dan Castellaneta ('The Simpsons').




My Two Cents: This is a great film. It's funny, it's sad, it leaves you guessing at the end, it's great. It's from the same guy who produces the God Inc. video series on YouTube (also great). The film style has an awesome "home movie" feel to it (mostly because it's about this guy in a small town filming some simple stunts with his friends). The entire video, including an opening greeting from the producer, is 95 minutes long, but there is so much story to keep you interested, the time just flies by. If you have the time to watch it I highly recommend it, you wont be disappointed.

I give Harold Buttleman, Daredevil Stuntman 5 Tire Rolls out of 5.
