Jon E. Edwards Is in Love (2003)

In the age of pre-packaged teen-pop franchises like Britney Spears, O-Town, and The Backstreet Boys, it's a tough go for the true iconoclast. Jon E. Edwards, self-proclaimed '"Number 3'" soul man in the world, wants to be 'International Soul Rocker Number One': equal parts Frank Sinatra and Johnny Rotten, Jon is a self-styled crooner whose real talent lies in his belief in himself rather than in his singing ability. For Jon, fame is an elusive dream and showbiz is a lifestyle that's got him by the throat. When Jon learns that his mother is given one month to live, he leaves his New York City apartment to take care of her in Los Angeles. With his life on hold, Jon struggles to find legitimacy as a soul man while at the same time worrying about keeping his room clean so his mom will stay off his back.
