CAST:
JENNY: JESSICA MCCARTHY
SIOBHAN: MOLLY FIX
ROD: RICHARD POCHE
FRANK: RAY BACHMAN


DIRECTOR'S NOTES:

Despite what some of the idiot on-line critics say I thought the acting in this one was pretty good (myself excluded). Molly Fix is terrific as a scheming nurse while Jessica McCarthy is a natural on camera. My good friend Ray Bachman shows his acting chops as well.

Admittedly, I tried to do too much here, acting, directing, and improvising a partially written script along the way. Lesson learned :)

In The Red is distributed through Echelon/Singa Home Entertainment. My contract is up with them in 2010 so I want to obtain the rights back for this one and re-edit, re-shoot some scenes.



PLOT:

Jenny (Jessica McCarthy) is trying to turn over a new leaf in her marriage with her husband Rod (Richard Poche) but finds her past catching up to her. Her half-brother Frank (Ray Bachman) has just gotten out of prison and is blackmailing her for money. What kind of secret does he have on her?
