Imagine this:

You're attending a cocktail party in L.A. filled with movers and shakers. Deals are negotiated over drinks. Beautiful people mingle with other beautiful people. Everyone is either and actor, a director, a writer or a producer. You spot someone across a crowded room. Your eyes meet. The person moves through the crowd, closer, closer and closer. The person is headed straight for you, but stops momentarily to take get a second glass of champagne from the server. A smile. You smile. And then the question.

So what do you do?

To which you proudly reply, I buy independent films.

Thousands of independent films are produced each year and 99% never get any kind of distribution. While the state of sales and distribution for independent film is dismal, it is also a blessing for film investors. It's easier than ever for film aficionado to break into Hollywood. Just buy an unsold film at a discount. Here's one such film:

REVIEW
http://www.screenjabber.com/broken-hearts-clubDVD
"Not only is the script spot on, it's conveyed to the actors and delivered by the characters fantastically. The humour is genuinely funny and the drama gripping and tense. You give a damn about the characters because they're real: individual cinematic portraits of romantic strife. There are no products of a cookie cutter to be found in this film. I am well and truly in awe. It is one of the best independent films I have ever seen. The writing is excellent and it's well shot, with rich colour, and not a hokey performance in sight. I am excited to see what [Angelo] Bell does next. An outstanding film.

Broken Hearts Club is It’s Complicated meets He’s Just Not That In To You where love-lost couples air out their grievances to a clinical psychologist who’d rather be treating the criminally insane. It is a dramatic romantic comedy about love, redemption, closure, honesty and moving on. People have remarked that this film is the most honest and realistic portrayal of relationships they’ve ever seen. It’s funny. It’s serious. It hurts. It heals. It’s real.

Summary - Dr. Terrence N. Thiebold is a former All-American linebacker and now a leading criminal psychiatrist. Highly successful in treating the criminally insane, Terrence is completely unprepared for the never-ending procession of misguided, melodramatic couples in the midst of tumultuous break-ups. Terrence’s new patients — the foul-mouthed, the sexually unsatisfied, the career-obsessed, the lonely and the hopeless — drag him through an abyss of professional frustrations.

CAST: Tank Jones (Three Kings), Maya Gilbert (Zane's Chronicles/Showtime), Michael Monks, Gwen Edwards, Elena Campbell-Martinez, Mario Cortez (Southland) and more...http://www.brokenheartsclubfilm.com/cast/
