coin-operated laundry seduces a mother and daughter and
convinces them to skip town, there's bound to be trouble, or

of cool. The financial payoff of Internet films, sometimes
called Webisodes, may be just as hard to pin down, even as
marketers recruit top celebrities and moviemaking talent for
the job
