Holly Magnani (actor)
has appeared in 9 short films, most of which have either
never been finished or abandoned. Not to be constrained
by the penile entitlement of male filmmakers, Holly is
making waves a producer. Her next appearance will be in

Monkey Films. We hope to see more of Holly's previous acting
endeavors as soon as laziness and poverty under the tyranny
of George W. Bush ends, sometime in 2008.
