Evelyn Reese, Near the Red Carpet (HD)

Evelyn Reeses is the rye-and-ginger infused divorcée of a certain age Executive Secretary/star-in-the-making. After conquering every emcee gig from retirement parties to curling banquets, our heroine decides to take her act to the small screen. The only problem is, Evelyn doesnt know a damn thing about TV land. So she picks up the phone and discovers that ET Canada needs an audition tape from this aspiring Entertainment Reporter. How hard can it be? thinks Evelyn, grabbing a borrowed video camera and newly retired office pal/film student, Dorothy McKay. Off they go to the Film Festival, where Evelyn tries to find celebrities to interview. Theyre nowhere to be seen and every gala and press conference is off limits, but that doesnt stop our lip-stick smeared Miss Reese from taking her campy theatrics to the streets. What results is head-turning guerilla comedy between Evelyn and unsuspecting strangers attending or working TIFF movies.
