Quotes:

Zoe Bell: So you're an actor?
Terry Frick (Photographer): Yeah, but I'm about to quit. I think I'm going to quit.
Zoe Bell: Oh yeah? Why's that?

Zoe Bell: Oh...

Thoroughly Entertaining

I saw this film when it appeared in Chicago and found it entertaining, amusing, and totally real. These are real women, and the courage and talent of these women who perform potentially dangerous stunts is awe inspiring. This movie truly captures the athleticism and skill required to work as a stunt woman. Jean Epper and Zoe Bell are excellent subjects as one is enthusiastically entering the tough world of Hollywood stunt women as the other, a veteran, teaches her the "tricks of the trade". The audience was also taken by the story and its highly entertaining subject. I will never view an action flick again without thinking of these tremendously talented women who fearlessly make an action film what it is. Wonderwomanly wonderful.
