The Last Leaf... the follow up

Well, filming for the last leaf wrapped up a couple of weeks ago... What a fantastic experience! Niamh my co-star was so wonderful, the whole crew were wonderful, and I just received a lovely card from Kathleen Weir, our director, thanking me for my work (and praising me!! She's lovely!!) and keeping up to date on how the editing was going

In the end, my character's name was changed back to Joanna, known as Johnsy... She was supposed to be Irish in Kathleen's version, but she was changed back to American.... so, a day before we begin filming, I had to master a New York/Long Island accent... Scary stuff!

I can't wait to see the film at the screening, I didn't get to see any of the footage during filming because I was in bed all the time... yes, that was actually what was required for the part, not me being a lazy so-and-so... although, I always get nervous and cringey when I see myself on screen because it is a bit embarassing!
