Geneviere
Anderson (Dolly Malone)
Geneviere is a
chameleon of an actor - she can play a sassy
vamp or a girl next door with the same apparent
ease. That comes from being a seasoned actor,
who has ten movies and TV shows under her belt.
Along with “Creature”, Gen has two other movies
coming out soon as well – “Sugarboxx” and “The
Adventures of Umbweki”. Geneviere is also a
master cheff, who has travelled the world
extensively to find exotic recipes, which she
then modifies to fit today's healthy lifestyles.
Gen recently put these skills to use in her own
cooking show “Gen’s Guiltless Gourmet”, now
playing around the world. At the set Geneviere
mesmerized us by her professionalism. The editor
had the easiest task putting her scenes
together, since she always repeated her gestures
precisely the same way take after take.

us graciously in Idyllwild at his vacation
house, a key location for the movie. We
added his jovial persona on the screen as well

an actor. -
