THE GOODS: LIVE HARD. SELL HARD (2009)
SYNOPSIS
Who is Don Ready? Salesman? Lover? Song Stylist?
Semi-professional dolphin trainer? Ready is all of the
above – except for a dolphin trainer. When he’s asked
to help save an ailing local car dealership from
bankruptcy, Ready and his ragtag crew descend on the
town of Temecula like a pack of coyotes on a basket
full of burgers. Selling, drinking, selling and going to
strip clubs is their stock and trade. And they do it well.
What Don doesn’t expect is to fall in love and find his
soul (cue heartfelt piano). “The Goods: Live Hard, Sell
Hard” stars Emmy Award-winning actor Jeremy Piven
(“The Kingdom,” “Entourage”) and Ving Rhames (“I
Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry,” “Mission:
Impossible III”). The film, from Will Ferrell and Adam
McKay’s Gary Sanchez Productions, is directed by Neal
Brennan, co-creator of the hugely successful Comedy
Central hit “Chappelle’s Show.” --© Paramount
