CGiii Comment

An all-female remake of Who's afraid of Virginia Woolf!!!

A lesbian amid a mid-life crisis...who dresses up as a vagina and lives in a garage!!!

If this is semi-autobiographical - then, heaven help Ms Albelo...

The comedy is stale. The direction: flimsy and lazy...and, to have Carrie Preston in the cast and squander the opportunity to use such a fine character actor to her full potential is nothing short of criminal.

Yes...it's that auteur ego raising its very ugly head again. Enough!

The(ir) Blurb...

In this eccentric all-female romantic comedy, charismatic filmmaker Anna faces a midlife crisis. She has neither job nor girlfriend, and lives in her friend's garage in Los Angeles. Just when she's about to throw in the towel, she meets Katia, who becomes her muse, inspiring her to write and direct an all-female remake of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" Surrounded by beautiful women as cast and crew, including Guinevere Turner in a tour-de-force performance, Carrie Preston, and gorgeous ingénue Agnes Olech as her smitten cinematographer, Anna destroys everything to get to the bottom of what is truly stopping her from love and life.
