I never heard this story. Sounds like it will be worth a watch eventually. Plus I'm a sucker for all things Zooey Deschanel, especially if she's singing.
So I guess Casey Affleck is semi-back from exile?

I really liked this. It’s such a good story. Great performances from everyone. It’s a shame it was released by Roadside and they didn’t give it any push.

A movie about music starring Goggins and Messina. Almost sounds fitting.
