What would you do to make it in the music business? Sleep with a record producer? Play guitar for a sexy singer who just wants to get you into bed? Finance a junkie’s fatal habit just long enough for him to write you one hit song? Steal, lie, cheat? Probably all this and maybe even more. Allison Anders and Kurt Voss return to the world of Border Radio with the bitter-sweet comedy Sugar Town, a convincing portrait of the seedier side of the LA music scene, filled with has-beens living in the past and wannabes doomed to mediocrity.

Englisch Survey of the life of people revolving around show business in L.A. A pleasant and intelligent comedy about the fact that you can't escape from increasing years and you can't step into the same river twice. A puzzle of human destinies, which surprisingly works very well despite the abundance of motifs. Sexually "horny" Beverly D'Angelo in the role of a millionaire is simply charming. The film clearly stands out from the regular production of major American studios with its aesthetics. Overall impression 85%. ()
