"Here is What Happens When You Cast Lindsay Lohan in Your Movie"

The dynamic between Scrader, Lohan, Pope, Ellis and Deen is fascinating.

We have Scrader, the talented screenwriter-turned mediocre director.

Lohan, the actress who lives in a world of no common sense.

Pope, trying to keep things together.

Ellis, a wretched, disgusting stain of a human being that is also immensely talented in his nihilistic vision.

Deen, the guy next door that has no business being in the Biz.

Lots of bad decisions, questionable aesthetic choices, the gritty details of a microbudget that wants to look expensive. The collision of what Hollywood thinks is gritty, the po-faced blandness of contemporary noir, the sun-bleached plasticity of Los Angeles, and lots of broken careers trying to make themselves 'relevant' again -- and how poor their ideas of relevance are.
