<P>Getting Hal is the first feature film from the Who Wants To Be A Movie Star?
  project. This unique concept was introduced by a group of filmmakers who banded
  together to produce a film where the lead and supporting roles were auctioned
  off to the highest bidders. The end result is an impressive spoof detective
  film. </P>
<P> After years of struggling to make ends meet, Dixie Randolph is about to see
  her dream come true. In just 48 hours, she is about to be the proud new owner
  of the ice skating rink that she loved as a child. However, Dixie soon finds
  herself on the end of a professional con trick and all her money disappears
  along with her boyfriend Hal. Receiving little help from the police, Dixie turns
  to an overworked, overweight, and over-the-hill private investigator, Phil Hannifan.
  Sole instructor at the Nick Harris School for Detectives, Phil teaches private
  eye skills to an odd assortment of would-be detectives. Soon Dixie's case becomes
  the class project for his current crop of hopefuls. What ensues is a comical
  array of disguises, spy gadgets and Magnum private eye obsessions that lead
  the bumbling sleuths on their way to getting Hal. OH</P>
<P> Tony Markes began his career as Director of Television Development at Cannon
  Films, soon moving to New Line Cinema. In 1996, he formed Beach House Entertainment,
  where he produced and directed the feature film Welcome To Hollywood featuring
  John Travolta, Will Smith, and Sandra Bullock. This is his second feature film.
