Thanks
to filmmaker Vohn Regensburger for this wonderful e-mail message about CAKE:
A Love Story, an award-winning short film based on It
Had To Be Us, the romantic memoir my husband and I wrote under the pen names of Harry and Elizabeth Lawrence. This film is now available on Amazon Prime.
A
producer friend of mine and I watched your short movie, CAKE: A Love Story
depicting your romantic life story and we just loved it! The story was very
endearing and heart-wrenching as it unfolded.
The
two lead actors, Debra Lord Cooke and Richard Vernon were marvelous playing you
two and were so relatable, funny and heart-felt in their roles. I just thought
all along, “Isn’t this just like love: blue sunny skies and summertime… until
it isn’t!”
I
felt by the end of the film I was good friends with you as a couple and had
known you both forever. I believe that piece is so hard to accomplish in a
film, let alone a short. I’m so glad you stayed with it and were able to get
this released and shared with the world.
Please
let directors Misha and Vera Zubarev know a job well-done, as well!
