Sherman’s Way
“Like an annoying new puppy, “Sherman's Way” just wants to run around in circles and lick your face. After a while, though, you kind of fall in love with it.”
Sherman’s Way
A real crowd-pleaser, SHERMAN’S WAY starts with two strangers forced into a road trip of convenience only to veer off the path into a quirky exploration of friendship, fatherhood and the universal task of finding one’s place in the world – a world in which one wrong turn can change your destination.
Starring:
James LeGros - Drugstore Cowboy, Point Break, Ally McBeal (Emmy Award nominated)
Michael Shulman - Party of Five, Little Man Tate, Someone Had to Be Benny (Emmy Award nominated)
Enrico Colantoni - Veronica Mars, Just Shoot Me, Galaxy Quest, Artificial Intelligence
Brooke Nevin - Animorphs, Smallville, Everwood
Donna Murphy – Two-time Tony Award Winner for Passion and The King & I
The discord begins when Sherman, a young, uptight Ivy-Leaguer, finds himself stranded on the West Coast with an eccentric stranger and washed-up, middle-aged former athlete Palmer in an attempt to make it down to Beverly Hills in time for a career-making internship at a prestigious law firm. The two couldn't be more incompatible. Palmer is a reckless charmer with a zest for life; Sherman is an arrogant snob with a sense of entitlement. Palmer is content reliving his past; Sherman is focused solely on his future. But somehow over the course of the movie, they manage to meet in the middle. Directed by Craig Saavedra.
