Full Plot Details

Set against the backdrop of the underground music and art scenes in New York, "Margarita Happy Hour" is a film about life after the party. Five "disreputable" young women meet in the late afternoon hours of half price drink specials and jabber uninhibitedly about life, libidos, and lactation. The heroine of this real life "Sex and the City" quintet is Zelda (Eleanor Hutchins), an artist and unwed mother struggling to hold on to her persona as sexy, rock star-seducing siren. To make ends meet, Zelda works as a porno-mag illustrator and shares a communal Brooklyn loft infested with drug-addled hipsters and scene queens. Her once fiery romance with her boyfriend Max (Larry Fessenden), a street-fighting, caffeine fueled washed-up poet is on the rocks as he struggles to live up to the challenges of modern fatherhood. To aggravate matters, Zelda's best friend Natali (Holly Ramos) moves in to recover from the damage of her rock'n'roll lifestyle. At first, Max is angered by this intrusion into their already delicate balance of personalities, but later finds himself becoming strangely attracted to Natali. Meanwhile, Zelda begins to falter in her attempts to care for everyone's needs. When events take an irreversible turn, Zelda is forced to decide whether to remain trapped by the illusions of youth or break out of the cycle.

Movie Reviews

New York Observer - 8/10 by Andrew SarrisMs. Hutchins is talented enough and charismatic enough to make us care about Zelda's ultimate fate.
Film Journal International - 8/10 by David NohThe film is like sitting in a downtown café, overhearing a bunch of typical late-twenty-somethings natter on about nothing, and desperately wishing you could change tables.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Kevin ThomasChaiken manages to make the film conversational without seeming talky, the curse of many New York filmmakers, and she has as sure an instinct for the succinct image and brisk pacing as she does for dialogue.
Matinee Magazine - 8/10 by Jason ClarkA miniscule little bleep on the film radar, but one that many more people should check out
New York Times - 7/10 by Dave KehrMs. Chaiken isn't much interested in melodramatic plot developments. Her talent lies in an evocative, accurate observation of a distinctive milieu and in the lively, convincing dialogue she creates for her characters.
Filmcritic.com - 6/10 by Jeremiah KippA full world has been presented onscreen, not some series of carefully structured plot points building to a pat resolution.
Film Freak Central - 6/10 by Walter ChawThe film's apocalyptic urban setting and unrelentingly icy zeitgeist is message enough without a triumphant parting shot
New Times - 6/10 by Bill GalloHere's a knowing look at female friendship, spiked with raw urban humor.
Film Threat - 6/10 by Merle BertrandHighly uneven and inconsistent ... Margarita Happy Hour kinda resembles the el cheapo margaritas served within.
Boxoffice Magazine - 3/10 by Shlomo SchwartzbergIt's a pedestrian, flat drama that screams out 'amateur' in almost every frame.
