Wrinkled Reels Written by Ron Schnitzius Directed by Bobbi Van Howe |
||
| The third in the Wrinkled trilogy,
Wrinkled Reels picks up the story of the State Home for the Aged after
life has calmed down post-rebellion. Still present are the Director
Oliver, Bess, Hank, Sylvia and Willard Dingle. Thurman Kelp is still
bumbling around as well. There is a new male nurse who has aspirations to
be an actor. In residence is a reclusive old movie star. She has not been
heard from for many years. Her presence inspires another plot to bring
exposure to the home in hopes of getting more government money. A director
decides to film at the home and lines up an OLD used-to-be heart throb
from the movies who often starred with the reclusive old actress. The
reunion of the two is the whole gist of the film. The male orderly finds her dead in her room. Fearing all the publicity will be lost if people find out, the male nurse/orderly is convinced by Bess and the gang to use his acting skills and dress up in drag and play the old actress. No one has seen her in years and they all think he can pull it off. Things then run amok. The flamingly gay director has an assistant who is a hoot. The camera gal catches the eye of the nurse/"actress" and what can he do about it while in drag and Thurman is determined to get into the film somehow. Wrinkled Reels is a very cute show and there are some monologues that are thought provoking about the changes in society that the old folks have seen, and more of the plight of the aged.
