Sienna's Choice

Janel Tanna brought tears to my eyes continuously as I lived her emotion with Siennas Choice. Her acting skills far passed any I have witnessed before and I could feel Siennas pain and raw emotions vibrating from the screen. The overall emphasis of Sienna's "choice" was portrayed with excellence and top notch acting. I was utterly overwhelmed with the raw emotion that I felt by watching this movie. I would overall rate this movie a 10 and would love to see a sequel or any additional scenes that may have been omitted. Janel is an amazing new upcoming actress and she is top notch. I will continue to look for work involving this actress

I saw "Sienna's Choice" at the Velvet Rope Film Festival in early October. I thought Janel Tanna's performance as a cancer patient was the best I had ever seen out of a female actor at a film festival. And I typically attend three or more film festivals a year. Her performance was raw and messy. She went deep to tap into her emotions. She even learned ballet and how to walk like a wobbly cancer patient, which showed her character's physical demise. An added bonus is that I was already Facebook friends with the director, Linda Palmer Caldone, whom I got to meet at the festival, and Dre Swain, another actress, who played a doctor in the film. It was a very emotional movie for me, as the hospital scenes hit close to home as I watched my own mother be ravaged by breast cancer and the resulting chemotherapy.
