CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com appears on “The Morning Mess” with Scott Thompson on WBGR-FM (Monroe, Wisconsin) on August 8th, reviewing “Good One” a significant feature film debut from writer/director India Donaldson. In select theaters beginning August 9th. See local listings.

17-year-old Sam (Lily Collias) embarks on a three-day backpacking trip in the Catskills with father Chris (James Le Gros) and his oldest friend Matt (Danny McCarthy). As the two men quickly settle into a quarrelsome brotherly dynamic, airing long held grievances, the wise-beyond-her-years Sam attempts to mediate. But when Sam’s trust is betrayed, she is confronted with her dad’s emotional limitations and experiences the moment when the parental bond is challenged.
