Well, the great hypothetical of my career ("What would happen if an actual, PROFESSIONAL actress came to SlapstickStuff?") has finally been answered. Not to throw any past models under the bus, but Lolly was.... just a different caliber altogether. I mean, she apologized for not being "off book" yet. And would get playfully annoyed when *I* had to check the script or stop her flow to set up the next pie hit. (And I can only imagine how a bedroom setup with sheets on the wall compared to her previous film sets....)
And you know what? Great acting really CAN elevate my crappy scripts! I mean, it's subtle, and I doubt anyone watching one-take messy phone clips is gonna care, but the flow... the improvising.... those SLOOOOW burn reactions.... or the way she could go from "quietly seething" to "comedic rage" in a second.... That stuff makes a difference. (To me anyway.) I hate to call a 14-pie scene "realistic," but watch the excerpt below and tell me I'm wrong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWLHYkMhVOY
And now that I've gotten all high-minded about "art," rest assured that Lolly takes the pies like a champ. Along with some truly epic cakings. (Seriously, acting with your entire head covered in frosting is a skill.) Her outfit was cute as hell, and her posture.... Well, let's just say that Christmas came early for the upskirt fans. (And there's a quick bit for the foot fans too!)
Is Lolly my favorite SlapstickStuff release of the year? Well, it's either her or SS267 Kristina. And that's high praise, my friends. Unedited footage available right now at RAWHD.SlapstickStuff.com or in the UMD Store. And what the hell, I'm releasing the edit early too at HD.SlapstickStuff.com. Merry Christmas!
This girl is not only a knock out but exactly what Rich said, an actual actress!! I was really surprised how well she just "got it". An absolute natural!
If you get this scene there are two things I guarantee you'll think, 1. Wow, she might be the best actress in WaM right now and 2. This girl HAS to be in a mukti girl pie fight scene!
I really hope we get to see her in more scenes to come!
Oh yeah. 100% it makes it difference. She's a cutie, sure, but her performance and charisma if off the charts. Picking these up, but also hoping and praying she's gets a go at playing a golddigging homewrecker ording the special at Krustys.
Thanks for all the kind words and early, enthusiastic sales thus far!
Several folks are already asking if she'll be back. Well, we shot 5 scenes over 2 days, so yes. If by "back," you mean, "Will Rich release the other 3 scenes sometime in 2023??"
Meathook, in Scene 2 she's auditioning for the part of "Homewrecker," and.... well.... Things get extremely dramatic.

Definilty would day you need someone to do the Sharon Stone Basic Instinct scene. Maybe she would be game.

Wasn't Katie in SS125 a professional actress who went on to a credit in at least one "Hollywood" movie?
Not to take anything away from Lolly. I bought these two and am looking forward to the other 3.
Without dismissing SS126 Katie in the slightest, she was definitely more "model" than "actress." She started doing some film and promo work in Atlanta when their film industry exploded, but I think she'd be the first to agree she was usually hired for her looks first.
Her big appearance in "Ride Along" might be technically a background part. (Does she even have a line?) But she appeared in the trailer, which was pretty huge. But again, that happened because she's 5'10" before heels and Kevin Hart is.... NOT. So her grinding against him as a stripper is kinda hilarious.
ANYWAY. I'd love to use more ACTUAL actresses like Lolly, but there's 2 complications. One cynical, one practical: 1) Most true working actresses are SAG with an agent, and they're only able to do SAG-credited film work. That's not me. I had a great actress in Chicago who seemed interested but basically said she couldn't do anything for that exact reason. 2) If I shoot 3 scenes with a plain girl with amazing acting chops.... versus 3 scenes with a gorgeous girl who can't act her way out of a paper bag.... Which one do you think sells better?
The Home Wrecker scene is even better. There is this self cake smash combo that she pulls off which was pretty much better than most wam model veterans. I pray this girl shoots more, I'm loving all of it.
Rich, you got to get her in a scripted pie fight scene, you know she would kill it!
