The Darjeeling Limited is about three brothers, played by Owen Wilson, Adrian Brody, and Jason Schwartzman, who go off on a train voyage through India to try and re-establish their relatinship.

LAist's "20 Under 30" series about interesting Angelenos under 30 continues with Neil Kohan. Unlike most moviegoers, Neil assesses a film's qualities more with his ears than his eyes. Neil works for Greenspan Artist Management, an agency for film composers. Neil works with agency principal, Anita Greenspan, to guide the careers of busy film composers like Mark Mothersbaugh (Devo, The Royal Tenenbaums) and Marco Beltrami (I, Robot, T3, The Omen). Neil describes himself as "a talent agent that doesn't wear a suit and doesn't have a Blackberry, yet I have a picture of myself holding a client's Academy Award."
