Summary of Ocean Park
Writer/director David Warfield fashions a Hollywood neo-noir that plays like a cross between MULHOLLAND DRIVE and THE BLACK DAHLIA with his taut mystery thriller, OCEAN PARK. Broken, disaffected dreamers populate the Southern California town of Ocean Park, chief among them an aspiring actress named Jolette (Alexandra Wilson), who becomes both professionally and sexually involved with a has-been actor, Will (Kenneth Hughes), who is struggling to make a comeback. When Jolette is found murdered, a wide range of suspects begins piling up--including Will; his sleazy brother-in-law, Rick (Jonathan Aube); Jolette's twin sister, Davia (also played by Wilson), who has mysteriously shown up on the scene; even the starstruck policeman, Kenny (Marcus Dean Fuller), assigned to the case--resulting in a pulpy journey into the heart of darkness that is modern-day Tinseltown.
