The Directors Chair With Brian Torres
One of the greatest moments for me was growing up was watching a classic movie with my Father on the nights he didn’t have to work late. Classic movies like "The Quiet Man" to "Rio Bravo" or "It's a wonderful life" with Jimmy Stewart, whatever we watched I notice I always had a deep sense that movies are where I want to be. This is why I am grateful to be working on Unexpected Angels. The most important thing I hope to gain by working on this film is to create something that brings fun and enjoyment to all audiences with a sense that maybe there is an unexpected angel in your life. I hope everyone enjoys "Unexpected Angels" in theaters this summer 2009.

I am excited to present to you my next film project "Unexpected Angels". As far as I can remember, film has always been a huge part of my life, and now everyone will have the opportunity to enjoy our next film Unexpected Angels. From my experience, movies have come a long way. In this story I plan to show the audience a meaningful romantic comedy that will hopefully touch your hearts. I want the audience to know our films come from meaningful moments in our very own lives. In addition, my goal is to capture the moments that matter most, and to put it in a story where maybe something similar has happened to you or to someone you know. Unexpected Angels is under production and will be filmed in Colorado. "In theaters this Fall".

"I feel very privileged to work with such a great cast and crew. I have had the great opportunity to work in the industry through a number of different avenues from both sides of the camera, print and TV commercials but film acting is where my heart is. I am anticipating a great product before I have seen one frame shot. Unexpected Angels is going to give the entire family something they can watch and enjoy together."

I am excited to work with Alex Palma and Brian Torres on this film. Acting has been a huge part of my life, and now you will have the opportunity to see some of Denver’s talent on the big screen. In my experience I have not come across a film like this before, this would be my first romantic comedy. Be on a look out for the next box office hit Unexpected Angels.

I am very excited to be working with this cast and crew. I'm grateful for the privilege of being part of the film that I know will be Fantastic!! I was born in Kansas City Missouri. I would love the opportunity to go to California and get my shot at the big time and my career. I'm a fun person to be around and love to be goofy and give others energy and a smile. I have been in a few films recently. My dream is to have the career as a professional singer and actress. The challenge of bringing the character to its full potential that is what I love.
