We have an exciting episode for you today!
The Mail Gaze made its LA Premiere as a Sherman Oaks Film Festival 2025 Official Selection: Short Film – Comedy and took home the Grand Jury Award – Best Performance by a Duo – Kelly Hooper & Kathryn Ross.
I loved this film and I was thrilled to see I got three of its major players of it to sign up for a joint interview- Kelly Hooper, Kathryn Ross, Jonny Diaz.
Johnny directed, Kathryn wrote, Kathryn and Kelly produced as well as obviously acted so well in it they won an award.
