The Mao Game

I want to see this movie I've never been able to see it. I was actually a movie extra in it and it says the movies here but it's not playing. Where can I see this movie? Everywhere I look I can't seem to find the whole movie. On YouTube, I only could see the trailer. Please somebody help me find the movie so I can watch it. Thank you. I did two scenes in the movie one was at the funeral, where it was raining and another was at the restaurant where Christy came by and shook my hand. It was exciting to work with her as I seen her in other movies before and we loved her movies. 9013561211 Donna Ashe.

Joshua Miller's first attempt at directing is excellent! He made the film entertaining from beginning to end. I think Piper Laurie's work was oustanding! She made the character seem real. Kirstie Alley's performance was her best ever! She played her role so well it seemed effortless.

At first you notice how brilliant Piper Laurie is in her role as the Grandmother - on second viewing the one who stands out is Kirstie - though her screen time is not extensive she gives a powerful and understated performance of an uncaring and selfish mother - however upon further inspection you see that she has trained herself not to care - and still does. I have never seen Kirstie do this type of work. Cheers!

An exceptionally unusual film, THE MAO GAME restores faith in modern film making. In a world of Shreks and Matrixes, this low-budget feature delivers beautifully finely-woven performances (except for Kirstie Ally who is good but unfortunately can never quite shed her Pier One Imports persona), a shattering subtext and some of the most breathtaking and creative imagery I have EVER seen. The story, basically about three generations of Hollywood celebrity, is so delicately and thoughtfully told that it often belies it's master carton of torn relationships, lost souls and drug addiction. Peppered with some occasional light "hi-jinx" and a fabulous comic cameo by Susan Bernard, I highly enjoyed this film.

This was a very underrated film that should have been picked up by an independent studio and released to the public. I was fortunate enough to see it at the Seattle Film Festival and I was blown away by the film. It was excellently written and directed by Joshua Miller and featured first-rate performances by Piper Laurie and Kirstie Alley. It offers a unique look at living in a celebrity family and coping with the lows of life even when it seems like you already have everything.

I'm wondering if this gem of a film will ever be released on video or dvd. I would definitely add it to my collection.
