MOVIE SPOTLIGHT - "MAGGIE MARVEL"

"Maggie Marvel" is a talented, epic film on the rise. Becoming an official selection at the 2010 Hoboken International Film Festival while also capturing festival awards at the Long Island International Film Expo including Audience Award for Best Feature, Best Actor Dan Brennan, Best Supporting Actress Diana Brennan, Best Supporting Actor Russ Camarda. Maggie Marvel is clearly on its way to movie stardom!.

Produced by Silly Sisters Productions "Maggie Marvel" is a dark comedy about a single mom who moonlights as a contract killer for extra money, and finds she's very good at it. A single mom never has it easy. Maggie Marvel must balance career and family, murder and math homework. She's pushed into a dangerous world, only to find she's very good at it. Maggie's daughter, Samantha, worries constantly about her mom. She never knows if she is going to come home and has to fend for herself all the time. Things really get interesting when Samantha gets caught in the middle of Maggie's world.

One of the things that strike our interest on this film was how it was created. Silly Sisters Production Company is unique because it is a family run company. Jeanne Brennan is the producer and cinematographer, Dan Brennan is the writer/director and two children, Sabrina and Diana, are supporting actors in the film. The story is very inspiring because basically, out of the Brennan’s living room, their family has now produced its second successful independent film. Their last film, 'The Video Guys', was a tremendous success, and we booked a worldwide distribution deal with the very prestigious company, Curb Entertainment. Be sure to keep your eye out for Maggie Marvel starring - Selene Beretta, Katherine Barron, Dan Brennan, Chris Douros, Sabrina Brennan, Sam Whitten, Dasha Kittredge, Russ Camarda and introducing Diana Brennan Produced by Jeanne Brennan, Associate Producer Antoinette Lipton Written and Directed by Dan Brennan.

New Years Day hangover helper

A Few ideas and remedies found around the web to hopefully help aid that new years eve post partying

VITAMINS – Vitamin B, take a b-vitamin before drinking or when you wake up

HYDRATION – the booze is a diuretic so hydrate your self with plenty of water or electrolyte sports drinks and lots of it!!

HAIR OF THE DOG – if you can take it after the long night try a Bloody Mary with the tomato juice and just enough booze in it to trick your hangover into health

EXERCISE – now the last thing you probably want to do is to jump into a gym and pump the iron but take a walk or a stroll keep the blood flow moving to sweat out some toxins

SLEEP – when all else fails, sleep and have lots of it let your body recoup
