THE GREATEST POWER: A Word With ‘The Misadventures Of Mistress Maneater’ Star Lorrisa Julianus

The Misadventures of Mistress Maneater Trailer from Binary Star Pictures on Vimeo. I have to especially thank industry stunt performer Bob Beck for pointing me in the direction of a few aspiring Chicago film professionals in the past month with film duo Lorrisa Julianus and husband, film director C.J. Julianus.

Enter the whimsical and un-wonderful world of Ava Moriarty (Lorissa Julianus), whose life has been a work-in-progress for longer than she cares to remember in the new indie romantic comedy, The Misadventures Of Mistress Maneater.
