Connecticut is turning into a holiday movie wonderland, and this is your chance to be part of the magic! Isn't everything just so spectacular in CT?
Since it's Hallmark, I'm sure they are looking for pleasant human beings to be in these movies, but they are still stories they are telling, and no story is worth sharing unless it has conflict. You need bad guys, jerks and mutants to tell any good story and I'm available. I'm a method actor so I've been in character as an A-hole for 45 years. Call me Hallmark!
