Plot: FIX takes you from Beverly Hills to Watts, and places in between, in one day, as documentary filmmakers Bella (Wilde) and Milo (Ruspoli) race to get Milos brother Leo (Shawn Andrews) from jail to rehab before 8pm, or Leo goes to prison for three years. Inspired by true events, we follow the trio as they document their trip from a suburban police station in Calabasas through mansions in Beverly Hills, East LA chop-shops, rural wastelands, and housing projects in Watts as they attempt to raise the $5,000 required to get Leo into the rehab clinic. Along the way the audience meets dozens of colorful characters, each with their own anomalous perspective on Leos larger than life personality and style, and each with their own excuse for why they cannot help out. In the end, it may take a drug deal to get the necessary funds for rehab.

Continuity: Capt Gregg appears next to Lucy on the train and scoffs at Fairleys motivations. The scenery going past on Greggs side of the car is full of buildings, and billboards, right up close to the train tracks. When the focus is on Lucy, well see open fields, trees in the distance, farmland. This goes back and forth several times throughout the scene.

Trivia: There are 6 entries in the trivia list – like these:

• Gene Tierneys first approach to the character of Lucy Muir was playful, almost screwball. After a conference between Darryl F. Zanuck and director Joseph L. Mankiewicz, the first two days shooting were redone so that Tierney could give the character more depth. The change resulted in huge critical acclaim for the actress.
• R.A. Dick was the pseudonym of Josephine Leslie, who wrote the 1945 novel “The Ghost and Mrs. Muir”.
• In 1990 there was serious at talk at 20th Century Fox of remaking “The Ghost and Mrs. Muir” with Sean Connery and Michelle Pfeiffer in the leads, but the poor box-office for The Russia House (1990) killed it.
