Featured review
Naomi Watts gives us an enlightening glimpse of a somewhat struggling industry
(2005) Ellie Parker
DOCU-DRAMA
Camcorder docudrama with Naomi Watts playing alter ego, struggling actress "Ellie Parker" an Australian while living in LA. Who eventually moved in with her best friend Sam (Rebecca Rigg) another actress who is also from Australia after Ellie caught her live- in boyfriend cheating on her.
This can either be interpreted either as a pessimistic or an optimistic vehicle for anyone who want to break into the 'acting' industry. Because anyone who says it is easy - it is not, as I like to think "Naomi Watts" from watching this she is a professional actress if she has the ability to shed tears on cue.
