Orange-born, Santa Ana-raised filmmaker Drake Doremus' 2011 movie Like Crazy is available starting today on DVD and Blu Ray. Co-written by Doremus and Corona del Mar's Ben York Jones, Like Crazy is the most adult of the filmmaker's three features (the other two being Spooner and Douchebag).

Like Crazy is about youngish lovers–everywhere man Anton Yelchin and instant “It” girl Felicity Jones–dealing with being separated by an ocean. With one stuck in Los Angeles and the other in the U.K., it gets to the point where they are uncomfortable together and miserable apart. Like the man said, like crazy.
Like Crazy won the dramatic Grand Jury Prize at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival, was quickly snatched up by Paramount Vantage for distribution and, following the most television advertising of any Doremus film, it debuted in theaters on Oct. 28.
