4/4 stars

Hollywood Dreams is one of my favorite Henry Jaglom films. It’s funny, moving and, at times, shocking. Tanna Frederick is great as Margie Chizek, Iowa girl who’s come to Hollywood to be a movie star. And she’ll do anything to see that happen. From her desperate beginnings she rises, first hooking Kaz, a movie producer played by Zack Norman. She goes through all kinds of changes in her obsessive pursuit of her goal. Frederick sizzles on the screen with the handsome Justin Kirk who plays a straight actor who’s pretending to be gay. Will they “make it” in Hollywood? Fabulous supporting roles by Karen Black, Melissa Leo and Daivd Proval (Richie Aprile of the Sopranos). There are a lot of hilarious scenes. From what I’ve heard this is more like the “real” Hollywood than any other film that pretends to protray the real Tinseltown.

In addition to Margie Chizek's (tanna Frederick) rabid and cunning pursuit of stardom, there's a very funny scene with David (The Sopranos) Proval. I won't give it away. I'll just say that his character Caesar is the kind of guy Richie Aprile would shoot just for fun.. Write On Profile +
