Guy Carter is an award-winning graduate student of architecture. He’s got a beautiful wife and a baby on the way. The problem? He doesn’t have “his ducks in a row,” which only fuels his doubts about being a good father. Guy has been trying to find work in his field for a year with no luck.

Cinedigm has released an official trailer for the upcoming comedy Amateur Night, which feels more like a mainstream studio movie even though it's an indie film. Jason Biggs plays Guy Carter, an insecure expectant father who, unable to find work in his field, accepts a job driving hookers around Los Angeles.
