Cashback was a stylish and pleasant surprise at last years Toronto International Film Festival. Finding a tone somewhere between Amelie, Trainspotting and Clerks, it is a simply a fine piece of entertainment. The good fellows over at Movies For the Masses have the trailer. Note that the film is an extended version of the 2004 award winning short film from Sean Ellis. Interestingly, rather than re-shoot the footage (as in Wes Anderson's Bottle Rocket), the actual short footage is incorporated into the film. I only tell you this, because below is also the link to the short online, and it is spoiler loaded if you want to go into the feature fresh.
**UPDATE** It looks like Cashback is getting the day-and-date release from Magnolia. Limited Theatrical on July 20th, R1 DVD on July 24th. Note that the R2 UK DVD is September 24.

This needs to hit DVD already...but still no word!
Amazon.com has it listed for region 1 release on 24th July 2007 and Play.com in the UK has it slated for 24th September 2007 for us Region 2 people.
For those who want that picture of that lovely girl up there, if you click the trailer link you can get it in all it's bare breasted glory. I'm putting that on my girlfriend's computer as a start up picture:)
