Jason Bushman Interview &#8211; Part I
My favorite line in the movie has to do with the un-specialness of nonstop sunshine. You show a very deglamorized &#8212; i.e., very real &#8212; Los Angeles in Hollywood, je t&#8217;aime, e.g., people riding buses, homeless people in the streets, dingy motels, etc. Since you&#8217;ve referred to Hollywood, je t&#8217;aime as your &#34;love letter&#34; to LA, were you ever tempted to glamorize the place? 
What I love about Los Angeles isn’t the glamour, and glamour doesn’t turn me on. I live in Silver Lake, and I only ever go to Beverly Hills when I have to, for business or a doctor’s appointment. (That’s not to say the Eastside doesn’t have it’s own bobo snobbiness, but [...]]]></description>

Writer-director Jason Bushman&#8217;s feature-film debut, Hollywood, je t&#8217;aime was recently screened at the Los Angeles Film Festival. The tale of a Frenchman befriended by a handful of social outcasts while looking for Hollywood stardom, Hollywood je t&#8217;aime turned out to be a quirky, funny, touching revelation. The good news is that those who missed the film at LAFF will now get the chance to check it out at Outfest, where it&#8217;ll be screened on Friday, July 17, at 8:30 at the Ford Amphitheatre in Hollywood.
In Hollywood, je t&#8217;aime Eric Debets plays Jérôme Beaunez (pronounced &#34;Bea-nie&#34; by a clueless casting director), a befuddled blend of Jacques Tati, Buster Keaton, and Adrien Brody. (&#34;Beaunez&#34; literally means &#34;Beautiful Nose.&#34;) After being dumped by [...]]]></description>

Chad Allen, Eric Debets in Hollywood, je t&#8217;aime (top); Branson (middle); El General (bottom)

Los Angeles Film Festival Sunday, June 21, highlights:

One-hour &#34;Coffee Talks&#34; (W Los Angeles-Westwood Hotel, beginning at 11 am) with directors (Zach Helm, Todd Phillips, Jason Reitman), actors (Andre Royo, Melissa Leo, Freddy Rodriguez), composers (Harry Gregson-Williams, Lyle Workman, Christopher Young), and screenwriters (Nicholas Kazan, Robin Swicord, Alex Tse).
Starring Eric Debets as a befuddled Frenchman who comes to Los Angeles expecting to make it in the movie business, writer-director Jason Bushman&#8217;s clever, funny Hollywood, je t&#8217;aime (Majestic Crest, 7 pm) seems to be the only narrative film in competition with a gay theme. Debets&#8217; remarkable, understated comic performance would have done Jacques Tati proud, while the colorful characters [...]]]></description>

Online leak or no, X-Men Origins:  Wolverine slashed its competition at the North American box office  with a remarkable $87 million in ticket sales, according to studio estimates  Sunday.
