Booze, Pills, and Missing Teeth: A Documentary of a One-Hit-Wonder Dad

040707FaCsmallweb.jpg

My friend GJ has a one-hit-wonder step-dad, Frank, who he started filming a couple years ago because Frank uses coffee cans for a toilet and is generally a drunk. GJ’s Mother, Cindy, likes pills, functions as the thorn in Frank’s side, and wishes he’d record another hit. The resulting documentary, Frank and Cindy, is a hoot. (But I may be biased because I designed the poster.)

Watch This American Life on Showtime this Thursday and see GJ explain what happened after filming began. Visit FrankAndCindy.com for a preview and info about upcoming film festival screenings.
