Backstory: Kathy MacKenzie
April 4, 2008
Sometimes you look at an actor and you just know she’s The One.
You don’t exactly know why. Is it the voice? The body? The facial expressions? Wardrobe? The energy she emits when she walks into the room?
I honestly have no idea. But the minute Kathy MacKenzie opened her mouth, I knew she was The One.
Throughout this entire process, Kathy has been my rock. She was always on time and completely prepared. Not only did she know her lines, but she had different interpretations available just in case the first didn’t work.
She helped us write music and brainstorm ideas. She was always around when I needed to rant and rave. Plus, she has those fabulously crazy pink glasses.
What impressed me most about Kathy was her devotion to this project. Indie movies are a hit or miss thing when you don’t pay people. Things come up, people cancel, they can’t make rehearsal, whatever. That’s life.
But Kathy never wavered. Even when she was in the hospital, she came through for us. Which is insane, but she did it anyway.
Thank you Kathy for commiting your talent to this project. You are awesome.
