“Life And Nothing More” is the most authentic movie you will see this year. It stars non-actors in a story about a single African-American mom in a small Florida town, trying to prevent her 14 year old from following his imprisoned dad’s footsteps. The film won the prestigious “John Cassavetes Award” at the Spirit Awards. Star Regina Williams and writer/director Antonio Mendez join me.

Also the 6th annual Reel Recovery Film Festival is on now through November 8th at the Village East Cinema. We speak with founder and recovering addict Leonard Buschel.
