As you may recall from my previous post, filmmaker Stephen Robert Morse (C'07, DP /34th Street) got funding from Wharton to create a political documentary.

From his Spring '07 Cinema Production course, Stephen has now submitted an entirely different type of film he wants to show us. ...A comedy that deals with "the morning after", revenge, STDs and all sorts of goodness. Look out for the use of Smokes as a location in the film. And try not to cringe when you see how the lead character uses Listerine to help his "situation" out.

Watch The Morning After
Part 1
Part 2

Stephen is now pursuing a Master's in Scriptwriting at the University of East Anglia and working at Blake Friedmann Agency in London, and plans to move out to LA in May '08 to find a job in the entertainment business.

The Morning After stars:
Marc Friedman (C'07), Lia Zneimer (C'09), Lizzie Frasco (C'08), Alex Weinstein (C'07), Leah Feder (C'07), Tracy Webber (C'07), Caitlin Russell (C'07), The Spring '07 TEP pledge class, Eric Borowsky (C'07), Tom Campana (C'07), Alex Solether (C'08), Andrea Kohn (C'09)

Taryn Winter Brill C'00 was most recently an anchor on Good Day Sacramento but has now gone national!

As of yesterday, Taryn is now the new entertainment correspondent on Good Morning America with Diane Sawyer! I caught her segment today which had her on the streets of Manhattan reporting on the sometimes awkward custom of greeting a stranger with a kiss. She's a sure natural!

When Taryn was an anchor on Good Day Sacramento she expressed her "obsession" with late night show host Craig Ferguson and was soon after acknowledged by Craig(!) on his show. Check out this very cute clip here

Taryn isn't the only Penn alumnus in front of the camera in the news. ABC must like our alumni because we have Stephanie Sy on ABC News and Dara Cook on ABC News Now. Outside of ABC, Emily Frances is the entertainment reporter on New York's WPIX.

Hot on the heels of completing shooting for Kevin Smith's upcoming comedy Zack and Miri Make a Porno, Elizabeth Banks (C'96) is in final talks to play a serious role (this time) from an esteemed Hollywood director...

Per The Hollywood Reporter, Oliver Stone has chosen Liz to play Laura Bush(!) in a film about the presidency of George W. Bush (played by Josh Brolin).

Liz is quite the versatile actress as she manages to easily transition from comedy (>Wet Hot American Summer, Slither, 40 Year Old Virgin) to drama (Seabiscuit, The Heights, Invincible). If Liz's career isn't big enough, playing Laura Bush in an Oliver Stone film should help to catapult her career even more!

Check out Liz's other exciting TV and film projects

From Scott Shrake's (GSAS'96) Huffington Post blog, to Rachel Goldberg's (C'96) National Protrusion site, it seems like our alumni have much to say about today's political climate.



And now it's time to add another humorous political site from our alumni to the mix: Al Bingham's (C'92, Mask and Wig, Philomathean Socitey, Friars) The Purple Crayon.



Per Al, this site is all about "political humor that makes no distinction between Red State or Blue. The pen may be mightier than the sword but The Purple Crayon is more colorful."



Some highlights of his site include:

• Passing the Clintons' tests


• NYTimes Launches Missile: Navy Vet McCain Takes Out Satellite Lobbyist


• Purr-fect Storm: Socks the Cat Joins Growing List of Superdelegates to Endorse Obama

Apparently other media sources are reading Al's blog. Per Al,

"I think the NYTimes is worth reading, especially the Caucus Blog. Also firstread.msnbc.com. Assuming you're interested in politics, of course. If you're not really interested in politics then you should check out The Huffington Post's humor site 236.com (most of the news, some of the time) ... especially on the days when they're cross-posting libelous material from The Purple Crayon - my political humor blog - albingham.typepad.com. Apparently folks from Politico.com, CNN, MSNBC and a bunch of people in the House and Senate read The Purple Crayon from time to time... which is an indication of how low the media and politicians have sunk in the Stewart-Colbertian sense."

Check out Al's site here
