Reneé In Short Film

[Rejean]

Wow!

I just saw "one Weekend a Month" on the Sundance festival site. I'm wiped out, blown away. How does she do it? Or am I just predjudiced?
Nah. If I'd never seen her act before, I would still be extremely impressed, even if I'd never seen her as Gabrielle or Laura Sue Dean, and knowing she'd done great in a role as difficult as Lady McBeth.
I'm also impressed witth Eric Escobar's direction. The film would probably work with any good actress, but Renee gives it that edge, the emotional intensity that builds to a kick where it hurts...
An excellent preformance from our ROC...but what else can we expect?

I didn't think this was anything special. I felt her response to being deployed wasn't played as desparate or shocked. I wouldn't watch a movie about her on the telephone but if they want to show her over in Iraq doing her job, I think it might be a better storyline. There wasn't any chemistry between herself and her daughter. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

I think they plan on making a full length film of her return from Iraq.

Yea, that's the part I'm not too thrilled with. I wasn't impressed with her eleven minute telephone conversation. I'd rather see her being deployed and then go to Iraq and have a story about her over there.
