Henry Jaglom’s 17th film as writer/director, Queen of the Lot, is scheduled to open in theaters nationwide this fall. Currently he is shooting his 18th film, Just 45 Minutes From Broadway, adapted from his hit play which just closed after a year-long run at the Edgemar Center for the Arts in Santa Monica. Tanna Frederick will reprise her onstage starring role and Judd Nelson will be her costar in the film, along with — from the original cast — Julie Davis, Jack Heller, David Proval, Diane Salinger and Harriet Schock. Ms. Frederick also costars with Noah Wyle in Queen of the Lot, which also stars Christopher Rydell and features performances by Peter Bogdanovich, Dennis Christopher, Kathryn Crosby, Mary Crosby, Jack Heller, Sabrina Jaglom, Zack Norman, David Proval and Paul Sand. The cinematographer on both films is Mr. Jaglom’s longtime collaborator Hanania Baer and the producer is Rosemary Marks.
