"A Slacker's Odyssey"

What do Sean Bones and Norah Jones have in common?  For one they both have a talent for great music, but they also star together in a really wonderful indie film from 2009 called Wah do Dem.  Max (Bones) is a total slacker from Brooklyn who wins a cruise to Jamaica with his girlfriend Willow (Norah Jones).  Days before they are set to depart, she dumps him and he sets sail alone.  We follow him as he navigates the island and encounters the local population, which is both funny and endearing.  All of which is set to a vibrant soundtrack that really captures the island spirit.  Watch the trailer...  

For those of you who don't know Sean Bones, I will provide a righteous sample of his music.  This Brooklynite blends a refreshing mix of reggae/pop and indie rock, which I quite enjoy.  Be sure to check out his album RINGS which includes a duet with Norah Jones called "Turn Them" featured in the movie.  "Let's Do Somethin' Else"...    

P.S. This looks like so much fun!
