Good lord! Talk about a fall from grace.
Now this is starting to sound hopeful. Thank God Miley is gone. I still see Faye in this part. Its going to take an amazing actress to get Faye out of my mind inn this role
Awwww and here I was looking forward in seeing Ms. Miley perform as Bonnie (rolling eyes).
Fall from grace? Did you see Hatfields & McCoys? Set ratings records and won a bunch of Emmys. History is doing quality product.
Keep up on current events. Jeez.
Is Tanya Holly & Cypress Moon Production involved? I know that for the past ten years she was working hard to get funding. Hope they didn’t cut her out! I saw how hard she worked to make her dream movie.
