‘Actors Anonymous’ up for another award
Actors Anonymous will screen at the 2019 International New York Film Festival on June 15, and director Mark Stolzenberg and his cast have already learned that the short indie film is an award winner.
The 20-minute short features local filmmaker, actor and creative
mind Judy Copeland (you’ll find her profile here) along with Karen Chrystal, Mark Stolzenberg, Patrick Heraghty, Ronald L. Cohen, Marina Bekker, Chris Mazzei and Jewel Rouge. Stolzenberg and Chrystal co-wrote the screenplay, which Copeland and her husband, Mark Schulman co-produced.
