Jaglom's pleasant 'Dreams' explores quest for fame

April 18, 2007 The quest for fame that drives thousands of young hopefuls to Hollywood every year gives agents and filmmakers as well as restaurant owners an unending stream of talent to pick and choose from. What these would-be actors and actresses are willing to do or even do without in order to achieve stardom is Henry Jaglom's focus in his excellent new romantic comedy drama "Hollywood Dreams," opening May 18 in New York and Los Angeles and going out nationally in June via Jaglom's Rainbow Film Co. Starring are Tanna Frederick, Justin Kirk, Karen Black, Melissa Leo, Zack Norman, David Proval and Keaton Simons. In "Dreams" Tanna Frederick makes her screen debut as an aspiring actress, Margie Chizek, who comes to Hollywood from Iowa bent on achieving fame and who's quite willing to sacrifice whatever it takes, including love, to become a star.
