Synopsis
Who is Don Ready? A salesman, lover or song stylist? All three as it happens. When he's called upon to save a local car dealership from bankruptcy, Ready and his OTT ragtag crew descend on the town of Temecula like a pack of hungry coyotes.
Selling, drinking, selling and going to strip clubs is their staple diet. And they're pros at what they do! What Don (Jeremy Piven) doesn't expect though is to fall in love...
Synopsis DVD
The Goods is a cheerfully energetic comedy that portrays how the ultimate hustler faces the greatest challenge of his legendary, and notorious, career when he attempts to save a local struggling car dealership from bankruptcy.
Emmy® winner Jeremy Piven (ENTOURAGE TV series) stars as a smooth-talking salesman in the "cheerfully energetic" (Robert Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times) comedy THE GOODS: Live Hard, Sell Hard, arriving on DVD November 10, 2009 for rental from Paramount Home Entertainment. One of the most outrageous movies of the year, THE GOODS was produced by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay's Gary Sanchez Productions and directed by Neal Brennan, co-creator of the Comedy Central hit "Chappelle's Show."
