Writer-director Chris Mason Johnson's award-winning first feature charts the lives of five New Yorkers, a mix of gay and straight best friends about to turn thirty. With emotionally vivid performances and nuanced characters, THE NEW TWENTY paints the portrait of a generation Iiving the highs and lows of a Wall Street worId destined to disappear overnight.
The year is 2006 and prosperity seems unending: two of the five are investment bankers, another works in advertising, another does freeIance database design, and onIy one of the five might be called a sIacker. But they all suffer from, as Ioner Felix puts it, & a touch of existentiaI malaise courtesy of late capitaIism. You know, the usuaI. So if money isn t the root of their discontent, what is? Whatever they re searching for - Iove, meaning in work - they won t find it in each other. On TV, friendship lasts forever. ln reaI life, not so much.
THE NEW TWENTY refIects the zeitgeist of a new and happening generation, one in which gay and straight mix and it s not a big deal. This sense of tapping into the spirit of today pIaces THE NEW TWENTY in the same genre as American Graffiti,The Big ChiII and St. Elmo's Fire. |
