The Bellmen (2020) Synopsis
The Bellmen is a zany comedy that revolves around a group of bellmen who work at an upscale resort in Tucson, Arizona. We begin with our hero, the bell captain Steve (Adam Ray), leading a tryout on the roof to see who is worthy of becoming a B.I.T. - Bellman in Training. Once Josh (Josh Zuckerman) wins that honor, he is put through the wringer by his co-workers.Though Steve proclaims to be a "bellman for life", he vies to get Kelly (Kelen Coleman), the chef concierge, to give him a second chance by lying about a promotion. Steve begs for assistance from Michael, a former bellman and old pal who is now the front office manager, to make this promotion happen. While they attempt to keep up the fib and avoid Alan (Willie Garson), the rooms division manager intent on busting him, things get complicated when a shady spiritual guru named Gunther Gochamonet (Thomas Lennon) has a plan to buy the hotel from the owner Sid Whitman (Richard Kind), through devious means. Steve barges into one of Gunther's seminars in an effort to expose him, but fails in epic fashion, resulting in both Steve and Josh being fired.Michael tracks down a despondent Steve in Mexico and convinces him to clean up and redeem himself. Steve finds Josh working as a sign spinner, and recruits him along with the other bellmen as they attempt to stop the sale of the hotel. After taking down Gunther, saving everyone's job, and winning Kelly back, Steve ultimately passes on the promotion and decides to remain a bellman, while Josh finally becomes a full-fledged bellman.
