GET SHORTY MEETS THE BIG LEBOWSKI IN
THIS ROLLICKING MODERN COMEDY BY A CLEVER AND HILARIOUS
NEWCOMER.Meet Wally Moscowitz. His day job is
top secret. As ghostwriter for Oral B, the most famous
gangsta rapper in the world, Wally is the real mastermind
behind Godz-Illa Records' best-selling artist, and the
best-kept secret in the Industry. But if word gets out about
Wally's true profession, Godz-Illa's kajillion-dollar rap
empire will be sunk, and Wally will be dead meat. When
Wally comes home one particularly bizarre afternoon to find
a ransom note and his best friend and dog, Dr. Barry
Schwartzman, missing, Wally goes to great lengths to stop
the dognappers while keeping the big secret under wraps. He
must, if he wants to walk away with his job, not to mention
his life, intact. The hunt for Dr. Schwartzman and the
blackmailing thug who is trying to reveal hip-hop's biggest
conspiracy becomes a wild-goose chase in which everyone
becomes a suspect: Sue Schadenfreude, Wally's girlfriend,
who makes a pretty penny massaging Barbra Streisand's
papillon, Yenta; Pardeep Vishvatma, Wally's neighbor, who
keeps a watchful eye on all the suspicious characters
lurking about the hood; Jerry Silver, Wally's slick-rick,
self-styled superagent; Abraham "Dandy" Lyons, Wally's boss
and Godz-Illa's CEO-badass with Suge Knight's street cred
and Tony Soprano's "friends"; Jem, the fiery, achingly
familiar vixen who steals Wally's heart; Yo Yo Pa and Teddy
Bizzle, Oral B's entourage; and the mysterious mob crew:
Five-two Lou, Six-seven Kevin, and Balsamic Vinny, who show
up when Wally needs them most. Duck Duck Wally is a
hilarious romp through the absurdities of Los Angeles, the
bombastic details of hip-hop culture, and a day in the life
of what was supposed to be the painfully ordinary existence
of Wally Moscowitz.
