TALKBACK THEATER! July – 10th. 8.pm, 106 W. North Ave Baltimore, Maryland

Come join us for a movie night featuring offbeat 2007 indie flick Great World of Sound: directed by Craig Zobel. As always: FREE movie, light snack, loose and comfortable mood.

“Great World of Sound” follows Martin (Pat Healy), as he applies for a job at a company training prospective “music producers”. During training he pairs up with another new employee, Clarence (Kene Holliday), a middle aged man trying to change his career path. As record producers, the two travel to towns where the company has placed newspaper ads to find undiscovered musicians. They are seeking talent for the record label- signing new artists and giving them a chance to let their music be heard… for a small fee. It’s going great at first, but soon Martin and Clarence begin to question whether the company is as virtuous as it promises to be in its promise to give people their dream.This film evokes the image of the traveling salesman- a talent salesman- to address the increasing trend of people looking for a shortcut to fame. The film also examines the people who promise such an easy path- commenting that a “scam artist” rarely believes they are one, and that often the scam artist is being scammed himself.

This event is brought to you by exittheapple in conjunction with Westnorth Studio and is sponsored by Station North Arts Inc.

Bullsh*t or Fertilizer, our 2001 self-help book, is back on our site by popular demand!

Originally self-published, this book was the reason we first built the site and ventured into e-commerce, back in the dial-up days in summer 2001. It was picked up and reissued by a US gift book publisher in 2003 and made available nationwide in a brand-new edition; in 2004 it was even translated into Japanese! Click here to enter the book’s site for info, reviews, an inspirational column from author Pierre Bennu, and photos.
