HOOK’D
David Larino is an actor who hasn’t had a successful job since his hit sit-com “Average Alien” twenty years ago. Now David can’t even get an audition, and recently lost his bartending job. He is broke and at the end of his rope. He decides to tempt fate with the help of his manager, LARRY KAUFMAN, and his niece, CHRISTY LARINO. His plan is to fake being a drug addict, get onto a celebrity rehab show called “Recovering Stars,” and revive his career. In order to test positive for drugs upon entering rehab, Christy cleverly devises a plan to refill her father’s prescription of Vicodin, that he had from a recent vasectomy.
After leaving rehab, he lands the role of a lifetime on a new TV drama called “Triple Play,” created by one of the most famous TV producers in the industry, MATTHEW BREISS. It works. David is realizing his lifetime dream as his guilt sets in about his exploitation of a real disease. He struggles to sleep and avoids phone calls and texts from fellow rehab alumni who are looking for support. The guilt and lack of sleep eventually drive him into real opioid addiction, and the destruction of his new found fame. David spirals into a serious heroin addiction and hits bottom.
WHO’S JENNA…?
Jonathan Burke, a highly successful financial advisor, meets Jenna Casey, a paralegal who is also an apsiring lawyer, on the night of his 40th birthday and it’s love at first sight. Unfortunately for Jonathan there are a few issues standing between him and Jenna.
Not only does Jonathan have to deal with his best friend Andy’s obsession with adult films, but Andy also thinks Jenna looks exactly like a famous adult film star and will stop at nothing to prove it.
To make matters worse, Jonathan’s egotistical and hypocritical boss, Joe, appears to be blackmailing him – and things only get more complicated when Jonathan discovers that Joe is also Jenna’s brother-in-law.
Who ever said that love was easy?
“Who’s Jenna…?” is an original story written by Tom Baldinger.

“I appreciate sharp dialogue in preciously funny situations. Tom Baldinger, writer, director, delivers that. Some of the scenes were priceless like the credit card commercial. That’s why I’ll see it again. The acting ensemble is quite accomplished which translates to a healthy infusion of their improvisational / ad libbing skills in the filming.” – NJ Discover
“Who’s Jenna” is a comedy that delivers well on a budget due largely to clever writing and good acting. …The cast are obviously dedicated to their roles although Bill Sorvino as Burke, Garry Pastore as Barcia and Tracey Birdsall as Jenna truly shine. Joe D’Onofrio also delivers excellently as Burke’s friend, Andy, who curses with the ease, flare and comedic timing of Joe Pesci….Overall this film definitely provides entertainment, quotable lines, and solid acting.” – Examiner.com
“The actors delivered believable performances and seemed to all work well together. Tracey Birdsall and Bill Sorvino’s acting in particular stood out for me.” – The Entertainment Corner
“This sassy and hysterically funny film by writer/director Thomas Baldinger, is fantastic fun. “Who’s Jenna…?” is quick-witted, with smothering chemistry and heart. Tracy Birdsall nails her role as the tough, smart and sexy attorney, “Jenna Casey.” Definitely a win for Baldinger. Talent Monthly loves this film.” – Talent Monthly Magazine
“…a delightful comedy mixing business issues and a twist of politically incorrect behavior with romance. Works for me!”
“Various complications ensue for the male lead character Jonathan Burke well played by Bill Sorvino.”
“The main characters are well developed and move the story along while creating amusing situations. The acting is overall convincing, especially that of Joseph D’Onofrio…” – Your Image Determines Your Success
“…Who’s Jenna…? is quite possibly the most family friendly pro-porn (and as a consequence pro freedom of speech) movie ever made…”
“… the film’s really likeable, it doesn’t resort to sensationalism to hammer home its point yet is carried by a strong enough story, a fun cast of characters, and a competent ensemble cast to result in a very entertaining movie!” – Search my Trash
“…the film had a wonderful Chasing Amy type feel to it, it also had a nostalgic 1980s movie type vibe about it. I love how the film had a focus on its dialogue and the great injection of quirky scenes adds to its personality…” – FromPage2Screen.com
