Featured review
Absolutely adored working on this film :)) the cast and crew were so kind, humorous, fun, and optimistic (wink wink wink). Working with these folks was a great time every shoot and it caused the film to have some great moments that were unexpected!!! Each person put their all into this project and it truly shows with each line, action, and facial expression. Getting to play Liza Nacozzi truly was an honor and getting to work with this cast was a delight. The finished product is so entertaining and easy to engage with. The humor within The Optimist is fantastic and genuinely got some good chuckles out of me!! Each character is well thought out and developed in just nine minutes. Love The Optimist in every way! Kisses <333!!!!
