Interesting facts

The Good Life is an unreleased American crime comedy film, written and directed by Alan Mehrez, and starring Frank Stallone. The film is about three men who move from New Jersey to Miami; two of them end up killing the third.

Production

The budget of this independent film was around 5 million dollars. The project began production in March 1997. Filming took place between April and June of the same year, in Los Angeles. The director at the start of the project was Barry Samson, who left and was replaced by screenwriter and producer Alan Mehrez; Samson is not credited in the film.

The presence of Sylvester Stallone in the film was limited to a simple cameo, a favor he, along with his brother Frank, the protagonist of the film, made to the siblings Alan and Diane Mehrez, producers of the film. The problems arose when the Mehrez siblings promoted the film as soon as the shooting was over, as if Stallone were the protagonist; the plaintiff sued the two producers and the distribution of the film was thus blocked.
