Finding Bliss (2009)
6/10
Surprisingly watchable indie flick

Warning: Spoilers
Struggling Jody Balaban (Leelee Sobieski) aspires to be a filmmaker in cut-throat Hollywood. The sexually repressed girl film ambitions take an unexpected and radical detour into world of adult movies when she answers an ad for editing position. Taking matters into her own hands, she uses the porn company resources to make her own movie under the guise of editing a porn flick.

Josie Davis who wrote and directed "Finding Bliss," which is based loosely on events in her life offers a - often uneven - female perspective on a male-driven industry. A surprisingly watchable indie flick despite the usual romantic trappings and disintegrates in the last half an hour.

P.J. Byrne as the bumbling Gary is a scene stealer alongside Jamie Kennedy playing a spaced-out porn star. Nice cameos by veterans of the smut industry.
