LIFE ACCORDING TO PENNY

[CrixusOfGaul]

This looks very good. I will pay money to see this!

[Theo2kitty]

I would seriously watch this! Good work! :)

[psychoukoh]

Wow, just watching the first short minutes...the clip felt really deep and you can't help but be drawn in by the plot! Great acting on Penny's part! Will try to find the rest of the movie.

[guineapig081]

Looks good, looking foward to seeing it.

[TheSuperNinjaFreak]

I have a box just like that, only mine is tan.

[Aar0nXZX]

get used to it? get used to wat?

[LiveLifeRight167]

@Aar0nXZX This film is about victims of abuse.  Penny is in the denial stage, until Lila's innocence makes her realize that she must act to save both of them.

[blackzabbathfan]

will this ever be fully uploaded?

[LiveLifeRight167]

@blackzabbathfan Eventually you will have access to the rest of the story but this 19 minute short film will be promoted while touring festivals this year. We are looking for funding for a feature length film so we can tell the whole story.

[rachgee66]

Where was penny going at the end? And whats the other girls turns? Can someone explain plz?

[katnissdagirlonfire4]

whoa i had a dream about that once only the characters were teddybears

[iraisetheroof]

Is there going to be any more?

[LoloLovesYa15]

Well, again I'm not surprised at how amazing this is! The acting is very good. And the filiming if brilliant. To be honest, this is better than few Hollywood movies ;D

[LiveLifeRight167]

We will post a trailer soon. This is a teaser clip of the first 3 minutes of an original story written by Sally Meyer. This story tackles the topic of abuse without showing it and shows the courage and faith of a young girl who finds a way to overcome it. The whole film is 19 minutes and will go to film festivals this year to find financing for a feature film. DVDs of the short will be available later on.

[pheonix64803]

I SO CONFOOSED

[HeatherHuffmaster]

When she says " Its her turn tomorrow" what does she mean? To get abused sexually?

[MCmakeup28]

This was great!!!! I can't stop watching ;)

[anubishouseable]

Wait... Is this a preview of something?

[LiveLifeRight167]

@anubishouseable

This is the first three minutes of a short film we are promoting and may turn into a feature. We will post a trailer on our Facebook page soon.

[gangster1152]

[Filmingeek]

@MissTennis63 I have never read or watched or whowever this was originated from... But I am pretty sure this Is something about an uncle who probably beats them all the time... Possibly something worse... I'm thinking that is what it is... Not sure.. Am I right?

[MissTennis63]

@Mainstaypro thank you! I'm on my phone so I can't go to th FB page :)

[MissTennis63]

Can someone explain what this is about?

[MainstayPro]

@MissTennis63 Life According To Penny is a short film about faith, hope and redemption set in the Southern USA in the 1960s. The story concerns Penny (Stefania Barr) and Lila, a mentally challenged girl played by Caitlin. Penny and Lila are two throwaway girls who are in a home for wayward girls and the film tells of their escape from the man who runs the home and how Penny's faith in Jesus saves them from danger as they plot to escape by crawling under a fence to freedom.

[98gleelover]

@MainstayPro whats a throw away girl? whats a wayward girl? xx

[LiveLifeRight167]

@98gleelover Throwaways are kids that are forgotten or neglected by their parents and society. Wayward are girls who got caught up in crime or trouble.

[98gleelover]

@LiveLifeRight167 thanks!! :D do you have a channel? x

[LiveLifeRight167]

@98gleelover

I have a couple of things up but you may want to check out Stefania's channel moviewatcher12494 and her band channel shrinkthegiant. 

[hugablestpersonever]

Are you going to add more on youtube? cause yeah I can't watch the rest because I live in Australia so I'll have to watch it here

[AmazingGrace3467]

Where are they? Did she kill her uncle? This is REALLY COOL!

[SecretNinja35721]

Thumbs so everyone can see this!

[mgluvsoftball]

I'm speechless...

[Emaginem]

This reminds me of the movies The Rescuers and Annie.  Great Job!

[TheTalkingRandom]

Please explain exactly what this is to me, just so I know that what I'm thinking it correct.

[TheThetwilightlover9]

two things 1 is this a true story? 2 r u continuing this?

[MainstayPro]

@TheThetwilightlover9 Not a true story. The whole short is finished. It is 17 minutes long. It is playing in film festivals throughout the United States starting this month.

[HalesForeva]

@MainstayPro

Isn't the video on facebook and where can I find the rest of the vid and did you make the rest of the vid

[waitwhatareyouasking]

@MainstayPro u guys will win if its a contest thing

[laxgirl101345]

@MainstayPro Did you make this up by yourself?

[MainstayPro]

@laxgirl101345 It was written by Sally Meyer, who also wrote our films Minor Details, You're So Cupid and Abide With Me.

[EDMYStudios]

is penny the girl from the second quater quell and kattniss and rue thank you for inspiring to read the hunger games!♥

[NummyMuncher101]

@EDMYStudios she is from the second quarter quell

[TheMortalMuse]

This is so sad!! D:

[kmjys97]

OMG can you make the full movie? THIS IS AMAZINGGG and it looks so good

[SwiftyGirl98]

this looks so awesome...

[brigrove]

looks awesome But this really IS a teaser trailer, because we can't actually see the rest!

[SugarCube623]

Is that the girl who was Masilee in the Haymitch video?

[itsmeNicole1897]

:O this is beautiful ! Does youtube pay you by making this videos? I hope they do, so you could make more awesome videos . :D

[MainstayPro]

@itsmeNicole1897 Nope. We applied for a partnership, but got turned down.

[StudioSpaceCadet]

@MainstayPro That's ridiculous, of all people, you should have a partnership, you put more work in than all the YouTubers I see today.

[safeandsoundhg]

@MainstayPro WHY WOULD YOU BE TURNED DOWN?!?!?!?!?! Whoever turned you down is an idiot! AN IDIOT I TELL YOU!!!!

[MainstayPro]

@safeandsoundhg We were turned down because we don't have the rights to the Taylor Swift songs and the Hunger Games material.

[Lyricsformusic134]

I really want to see the rest, but I looked it up on Facebook and is said 'no results found'

[brigrove]

@Lyricsformusic134

This was the result facebook gave me, so it IS there (you have to put facebook and com before this link )

/pages/Life-According-To-Penny­/223883094304470

[Aeryn7Sun]

Wow this is superb, as always. I want to see the rest!

[lavenderflames]

I admit I am skeptical. The Southern girl sexual assault and doing anything to protect others from thing has been done over and over. But you've never let me down before and you've got solid actors so I will give it a shot.

[MsUnicornTastic]

Awesome. But what if you don't have a Facebook?

[TheDarrier]

Cool!!

[LiveLifeRight167]

Thanks for all your interest in the film. We enjoyed making this one with all the great guys at Mainstay. 

[LilaLovegood1]

umm...my name is lila...awkward...

[owlman113]

That's Haymitch's ally from THE SECOND QUARTER QUELL, right?

[HaleJayRo]

@owlman113 SHYAH!

[KarlieXUlquiorra]

Wow guys... Amazing! I love it. Also do you think you could do some more hunger games movies? Please. ^_^ -3

[Iwanttoholdyourhand4]

wow this is incredile

[francypants400]

my name cat lover caitlin

[HaleJayRo]

I NEED TO SEE THE REST! (Is it based off a book or did you guys create it?)

[MainstayPro]

@HaleJayRo It's an original story by Sally Meyer.

[HaleJayRo]

@MainstayPro TO GOOGLE!

[HaleJayRo]

I will now be sleeping with my lights on.

[HaleJayRo]

MAYSILEE!

[Msdanceforever97]

i want to see the rest of it!!!!

[Hileysweety]

You guys need to make full length movies! your actors are good and your directing and all the other kinda stuff movie people do is awesome too!

[jb1234love]

oh my god this is incredible. you are all extraordinarily talented people. i hope you know that.

[applepie132100]

i really want to watch this... when can we?

[steph19777]

From what I understand a girl named Penny was charged with murder and put into a girls home. She along with other girls take turns with their main care taker (guessing he rapes them...) The girl with the Teddy bear is new their and mentally handicapped. And now Penny wants to get out of the home so she's planning something to escape. Or at least that's what I think it's about I read it on fb

[2Ep1c2kn0wy0u]

0 dislikes......

That's how it should stay! :D

[achu1897]

looks AMAZING! i actually want to see it so bad :(

[100edwerd]

I liked it but I'm confused...

[kitkat525525]

@MainstayPro what is this about?

[LiveLifeRight167]

@kitkat525525 This is about courage in the face of trials and overcoming your giants. We hope to screen it nationwide at festivals and possibly do a feature length film of this or others.

[ilovealyna0306]

oh wait that's Juliet right?

[MainstayPro]

@ilovealyna0306 Nope. Not Juliet.

[ilovealyna0306]

Juliet's so big now oh my..

[lyrics0492]

As always you captured my attention -3

[kitkat525525]

Wat is this about?

[starfireiris]

Dude! i have that same box! lol, i used to keep barbies in it, haha

[mazerunner13]

wow halfway through i actually thought i was watching a ligit film. i mean this is ligit but i mean with big production companies and lots of money invested films!

[Torikelani]

Wow....

[EarlyBirdie82]

I hope there'll be a showing in WI/MN!

[HayleyTSA]

like if you're the 303 viewer.

[HermionePotterFan]

Love it, great acting, but what's the storyline about?

[xtehDumbLOVE]

No wonder the girl looks familiar!It's Maysilee from the Quarter Quell video!

[TeawithMrTumnus]

That was cool! :)

[TeamHaymitch]

You know what, forget that last comment my mistake. (About the screening.)

[TeamHaymitch]

Where is the screening taking place?

[RafaWichu]

I loved it! But I didn't get it completely, who's the man behind her door? her uncle? anyway, that man is raping the girls? D: There's any chance I can see the rest? because I'm spanish, will you upload the whole thing? because it seems really interesting

[TeamHaymitch]

This is beautifully made (as is all your work), but I'm not very clear as to what its's about. Also, did her uncle molest her?

[Teddybeartoes]

is this going to come out on dvd or something?

[asradiantasthesun]

you guys are amazing. end of story.

[safeandsoundhg]

Is that maysilee!?!



[Teddybeartoes]

@safeandsoundhg yep

[cheer56781]

Can someone explain wtf just happened?

[werawsomeactors]

Okay so is she in a crazy house? And did he like rape her or something? I'm confused! but it's still AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh.. and what's gonna happen to Lila?

[balletemmy96]

@werawsomeactors I think that they all have to kinda take turns in bed with him and Lyla is up next. I'm not sure...wish I could see the whole thing!

[werawsomeactors]

@balletemmy96 ohhhhhhhhhh wait so what's up with the shot?

[LiveLifeRight167]

@werawsomeactors It does show consequences of abuse but no scenes of it. It's more about overcoming difficulties rather than thinking of yourself as a victim as a victim.

[werawsomeactors]

Are you guys looking for extras? Cause we are soooooooooooo willing!!!

[xSixBillionSoulsx]

This looks soooo good!

[thebtvsnerd]

Are you guys LDS???

[Weroniva]

Have I ever told you how much I love you guys ?? <3

[emmahzification]

he shot her?

[birchdryadgirl]

@emmahzification i think she shot him. that's why she's in there

[MyWorldMyLife96]

Wait - what's happening ?! Are they getting raped ?! I totally want to see the whole thing - nut where ?? It was amazing :) .

[PeneloPhoto]

Mainstay, you're a Utah production company?! I had no idea. I just went to look this up on Facebook and saw that your screening will be in my city! Totally going to that.

[SelinTwihard]

[FatHedgie]

Your films are crisp and beautiful as always. Well done.

[mercedesvalacer]

[RachelleRheMusic]

[MonkeyMiniMe]

[catgir1111]

[The8Luny8One]
