“Marmalade” -- This film is trying to get distribution and we loved the film! I feel the film will work for regular moviegoers. It has a storyline that is relevant to what is happening in the world today.
It is about a model Kim (Jill Sorensen) who is considered too old to work in the fashion industry at 32 years old. Kim is fired from her job after she insults the director of the photo shoot, she is also broke after spending all her money, and then she breaks up with her boyfriend. With nowhere to go she moves in with her best friends. This then proves to be a problem.
Kim's best friend Jessica (Jennifer Kusner) is making a film about modeling. She is interviewing models about how the fashion industry gives up on models when they reach a certain age. Kim is so into herself at this point that she hurts the film project that her friend Jessica is trying to get financed.
Kim has to resort to doing feminine hygiene commercials. This proves too much for Kim when she is asked to play the mother of a model only two years younger than her. The film follows her love life too, after her break-up with her boyfriend...her friends hook her up with dates. These encounters (dates) make for the funniest parts of the film.
Then one day she walks into a humane society impound and befriends a cat. The cat, like herself, is too old. People just do not adopt older cats, they like kittens. She visits the cat many times telling the cat her problems. She becomes very attached to the cat. This helps Kim and soon her life takes a change for the good.
I am not going to give away the ending, but I think if you see the film and watch carefully...you will see how the cat makes a difference in Kim's life.
The acting is very good and the two women who wrote the screenplay also played the lead roles (Jennifer Kusner and Jill Sorensen).
I hope this makes it to the big screen or maybe HBO. It is a funny movie and shows the real world of fashion.
