Larry Karaszewski on CAR WASH
Movie overview and plot by Anagha Shashank
Movie in-short: A comedic take on the daily life of car-wash employees, chronicling their hopes, fears, joys, dreams, and tribulations, and meeting some eccentric customers along the way.
Movie story-line: This day-in-the-life cult comedy focuses on a group of friends working at Sully Boyar's Car Wash in the Los Angeles ghetto. The team meets dozens of eccentric customers -- including a smooth-talking preacher, a wacky cab driver and an ex-convict -- while cracking politically incorrect jokes to a constant soundtrack of disco and funk. Some of the workers find romance as the day moves along, but most are just happy to get through another shift.
Movie synopsis: One day, a close-knit group of car-wash employees have all manner of strange visitors coming onto their forecourt, including Richard Pryor as a preaching "wonder-man" who is loved by most but loathed by one, and a man who's mistaken for a drunk, but the bottle he clutches is actually his urine sample as he is off to the hospital. Meanwhile, T.C.'s love life improves, and the songs keep coming.
