5.0 out of 5 stars An authentic look at the life of a Broadway actor, April 15, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Lena's Dreams [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I'm not an actor but I have a few friends who are and this film really captures what they live through. I saw it at a little theater in the East Village back in 98 or 99 (?) and the crowd, which I bet had a lot of actors, really loved it. It was a total surprise to me to see this great little independent film out of nowhere. Lenas struggle to hang in there and not give up acting is exciting and annoying and hilarious...kind of how I feel about the better actors I know: exciting (when they are performing), annoying (so damned self involved sometimes) and hilarious (no one is more fun at a party)...if you have ever thought about acting, or even have enjoyed going to theater, you've got to see this movie. The actress who played Lena is REALLY talented, and there are a few good TV actors in it, a guy from Oz and and one of the stars from Scrubs. Definitely worth checking out.
