Because this experience began as a play, most of the cast had already spent months developing their roles. And with Daphne and Heather, who had worked with me on the West Coast premiere, I'd already developed a short-hand for working, making the filming process second nature."

Much of my crew were former students who had worked with me on my first feature and had come back to support me once again.

PRESS

Read what various media sources have said about the film!

The proverbial 'revelation,' that unexpected truffle that dogged cinephiles hope to unearth at fests, came by way of Amy Glazer's 'Seducing Charlie Barker,' vet theatre and TV writer Theresa Rebeck's adaptation of her play. It's a sad, hilarious, witty and right-on rendering of a talented but unemployed New York actor who, as his own worst enemy, makes all the wrong decisions ... Casting throughout is pitch-perfect, as is the writing, direction and storytelling."
-- Doris Toumarkine, Film Journal International
