The Actress is one of those films that could sound ordinary if you simply just read the plot summary. Going in, I wasn't expecting anything brilliant, but I got just that! The film only reaches the full extent of its achievement if you of course move beyond the simple sounding plot outline and see how these unknown actors make all of the dialog and characters their own. I must have laughed out loud more times than I could count, especially Steve McCall (who also co-wrote) who pretty much stole the show as far as I'm concerned. All of the other leads were also amazing and I don't want to take away anything from them, but McCall just had such a great presence and clear-cut comical timing. Director Zak Hilditch is an amazing new talent and I will be looking forward to seeing his next film which will hopefully be as good as his debut feature. If this film doesn't find a distribution deal then there is something wrong with our country if they let this film fall by the wayside. Excellent job.
