Lost and Found Saloon, 1353 Grant Avenue. |
North Beach,
aka North Beach: The Movie, proves the
stereotype that San Francisco is filled with raging heterosexuals. Only
in the City could a slacker like Tyler Morgan be so busy. He's got to square
things with his girlfriend Paige (he's just cheated on her with a stripper), rehabilitate his reputation among his cronies on upper Grant, and learn
new songs for a gig at the Lost and Found, all before Paige makes
time with a suit. The streets are paved with beer in this indy's take on
Little Italy, and it works. Not all the performances are great, but North
Beach avoids the pitfalls of independent features of this scale by keeping
it light. Casey Peterson plays Tyler from his own screenplay, which features
some great Peter
Macchiarini Steps
