Rosario Dawson (Sin City, Rent) stars in this somewhat simplistic you-go-girl tale where insecurity undermines confidence, and then is given a second chance for self-evaluation through the intervention of an older woman.
Shot with high values throughout, and topnotch original soundtrack music by Genji Seraisi and Dennis Martin. Extended shots during monologues and dialogues asked a lot of the actresses in terms of "business"... which Dawson wasn't quite up for, but certainly a more seasoned actor like co-star Donna Mitchell was flawless. Slightly over-mannered to make up for a thin storyline, but then again, this is a one-trick pony and it does what it does with panache.
Directed by Talia Lugacy (Moxie Pictures) and funded apparently with significant help from Glamour Magazine, this little film is a benefit for FilmAid International and has a dazzling array of credits at the end. It's a role model thing, and a nice little morality tale for a classroom of teenage girls (whether or not they look like Rosario Dawson)... inasmuch as this film makes clear that even "gorgeous" women fall apart with worry about their own looks.
