LA film comes to Fresno

About twenty local extras made their big screen debut helping a film crew from Los Angeles shoot a portion of the forthcoming drama "Last Curtain Call.” Producer-director and valley resident Jennifer Tadlock says shooting the big concert scene in Fresno was a no brainer.

"We picked here at the Fulton 55 because we knew it was a great venue and great people here that always want to come and help out with the film," said Tadlock.

The Fulton 55's large ceiling and classic ambiance helped actor Christopher Maleki get into the lead role of Mason, an aging rock star with dementia trying to make things right before it's too late.

"I shot a film up here a few years ago, so for me I have been here before,” said Maleki.

And for the unpaid extras, many actors themselves, being able to help out a fellow artist was an opportunity they couldn't pass up.

"Just being able to participate in something like this and have a good time doing it, doing what I love, that's what it is all about," said Ryan Hanson.
