Description

My friend Xaque Gruber wrote and directed a semi-autobiographical film about meeting his idol Sally Kirkland... and that's just the start of the crazy story. But how much of it is true? Geekscapists might not know the name Xaque Gruber but he and I have a history that goes back longer than Geekscape: almost 20 years! We first met while working as Hollywood assistants and while the work was thankless and the pay was worse, Xaque always gave me something to look forward to each day! So of course when I got the chance to have Xaque on the show to talk about his new award-winning film 'Sallywood'. I was going to jump at the chance to catch up with him! The semi-autobiographical 'Sallywood' tells the true story of 20-something "Zack", who moves to Hollywood from Maine to pursue a Hollywood career. In a chance encounter, he meets his lifelong idol Sally Kirkland, who hires him on the spot to be her assistant. Learning that her once Oscar-nominated career is now in shambles, Zack dedicates himself to finding a way to land her back on the red carpet where she belongs! So again... how much of this story is true? Listen to find out!
