Trailer For a Kooky Comedy Caper THE SIXTH REEL About The Discovery of an Undiscovered Film Reel

Here’s a trailer for a screwball indie comedy caper film titled The Sixth Reel. The film centers on a down-on-his-luck movie collector who discovers a legendary lost film. This leads him to become entangled in an outrageous adventure to deliver it to the right hands before it is lost forever.

The synopsis reads: “When the death of a close friend unearths the long-thought lost final reel of a classic undiscovered film, Jimmy (Charles Busch) a down-on-his-luck movie collector and his social circle of obsessive collectors each concoct wild, underhanded schemes to cash in on a big sale of the film.”

The film is co-written and co-directed by Charles Busch and Carl Andress. The movie stars Charles Busch, Julie Halston, André De Shields, and Patrick Page, with Tim Daly and Margaret Cho.

The movie has a very low-budget kind of feel to it, but some audiences might find it entertaining. The Sixth Reel will be released in select theaters on September 22nd, 2023.
