My husband Paul and I went to see Alex T Hwang and Kate Wells Hwang's action movie "Bang Bang Betty: Valerie's Revenge" last night at the TCL Chinese Theatre at the Golden State Film Festival, and we were both amazed! The film has incredible production value, acting, direction, and music. The stunts by Gary Choi and the Rising Star Stunt Team were fantastic and it was exciting to see so many of my friends on the screen! The acting was very believable, and I especially enjoyed the comedy in the film by Gerald Parrish and the sinister character of Luna. Congratulations to Alex, Kate and the entire cast and crew!
