Finding Bliss

 

Sexuality.  Romance, of a sort.  Not judging a book by its cover. Reaching for the stars and following your dreams.  All are core themes in writer/director Julie Davis’ latest film, FINDING BLISS which, quite frankly, is blissfully enjoyable.  Herself a long time film editor for Playboy, Davis brings some autobiographical elements to the screen in the charBlissPosteracter of career frustrated NYU film graduate Jody Balaban, but then calls on her own passion to bring her dreams as a filmmaker to fruition to create a fun, charming and funny film.

Find your own bliss with FINDING BLISS, a film done out of passion that comes from the heart.  Julie Davis draws on personal experience and rather than getting bogged down and maudlin, uses acerbic wit and heart to tell a sweet, fun and funny story, making for a more than blissful viewing experience.  And I guarantee, when this hits cable, pay-per-view or DVD, you will find yourself late at night or on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon watching over and over again, smiling and laughing each and every time you see it.
