The highlight of Ray’s day is chatting with Nora, a clerk at the market. When Ray comes home early from work and finds his wife in bed with his brother, a few things start to change. Then he meets Merl, who’s putting in a Chevron station, and Merl encourages Ray to dream. Can he? A recipe for meringue may hold one of the keys..

good indie comedy…
This movie was funny as hell! It’s got a little bit of everything actually – good story, funny parts and bit of the emotional stuff. But mostly just a really well-written comedy that didn’t always rely on the same freakin’ jokes you see in every studio comedy these days. I swear they have a book of 9 jokes that they recycle in every new movie.Don’t know who Tracy Middendorf was before this but I’m definitely looking for her from now on… totally the beautiful girl from next door and she’s great in this. DeVito has a cameo but is great as always…

BIG DREAMS
Ray (Dylan Walsh) is a parking lot attendant. He lives in the nearly deserted town of Trona, owned by a meth dealer named Dirk( Will Rothhaar) who bullies and extorts money. The rest of Ray’s dysfunctional family includes his wife Charlene (Penny Balfour) who is afraid to leave the house, and his unlikeable son Eddie (Jonah Hill) a confused teen who winds up living with a black prostitute (Anika Noni Rose).Ray likes the market girl Nora (Tracy Middendorf). She fears she is going to lose her store because of the opening of the Chevron station owned by Danny DeVito. One day, Ray and Danny team up and draw a line in the sand. There is a lot of odd ball type of action, although much of seemed to be odd just for the sake of being odd and not overly funny. There are some humorous scenes, although mostly it is either dark humor or that oddball kind of humor that characterizes indies. It is a good movie for those who like quirky humor. It is not overwhelmingly funny or deep, just cheap entertainment.
Parental Guide: rare F-Bomb, one brief sex scene, no nudity, sex talk.
