Rags to riches to rags comedy loosely based on the director Steve Burrows� actual experiences while writing screenplays in Los Angeles. Burrows (aka �Milwaukee Steve�) finally makes it big as �The Crotch Fresh� commercial guy, but then can�t catch another break � not even when he auditions for a new Crotch Fresh commercial! He decides the only way to make a comeback as an actor is to fake his own death, then make a glorious return. Before that idea pans out, Milwaukee goes on �Wheel of Fortune�, and become notorious when he�s sued by the Merv Griffin Corp. �Milwaukee Steve� becomes a hot ticket, with numerous folks riding his coattails. However, after a studio hires him to write a script, nothing works out as planned. Desperate, broke, and depressed, Steve returns to Milwaukee, in mid-winter, to gain comfort from family and friends � only to find his mother has rented out his room while on her annual trip to the Netherlands. �Milwaukee� then recounts his Los Angeles� saga to his mom�s boarder as they explore some of Milwaukee�s more amusing locales. By the end of the film we�ve met a host of crazy characters, and we are rooting for �Milwaukee Steve/The Crotch Fresh Guy� to find his own brand of �fame, fortune, cheese, and beer.�
