Boulevard is a 2014 American drama film directed by Dito Montiel and written by Douglas Soesbe.

He and his wife Joy have embraced their marriage as a convenient and comfortable distraction from facing reality.

During the conflict, the bank's patrons observe Nolan, Leo and the pimp in the parking lot.

Joy prefers to keep the status quo, but Nolan is ready to live in the real world and stop pretending that he is someone who he is not.

Nolan packs up and quits his job, tells his best friend that he is moving to New York City, and meets a man in a cafe, presumably on a date.

"[5] Soesbe wrote the first draft of the screenplay, which was set in Los Angeles ten years earlier, and because of its subject matter, did not expect it to be produced.

When producers showed interest in the project, Soesbe rewrote the script to set the story in a small town that would be "more constricted than Los Angeles".

"[12] On Metacritic, the film has a score of 52 out of 100, based on 22 critics, indicating "mixed or average" reviews.

[13] IGN awarded the film a score of 7.0 out of 10, saying, "It doesn't offer Williams doing any truly brilliant bits of comedy, nor is it a role that is destined to be iconic, but it fits.
