Film Short with Christina Hendricks

I am at a big, outdoor party for something. Not a wedding but maybe a graduation. I am flipping through a magazine that belongs to my mother. I start to play a video that's in the pages. It's a short movie made by a woman I did a film with many years ago. The star is Christina Hendricks (the va va voom redhead made famous by AMC's Mad Men). It's sort of a fairy tale gone wrong plot. Ms. Hendricks is at the party, and I take the magazine to her to show her and tell her that I know the woman in it with her. She seems embarrassed about the short, like it was done before she was famous, and it's not very good. I start to agree with her - probably just because she's beautiful and famous. The film isn't great, obviously low budget, but I point out all the really interesting things about it. The use of color as metaphor is intense. The angle of many of the shots is unique and adds an element of unease that's not explicit in the script. The story itself is thought provoking. And of course Ms. Hendricks is beyond lovely and does an amazing job of selling it.

Note: While it sort of sounds like I was looking at a magazine with an e-reader since it has an embedded video, the video was actually embedding in a print edition. Which would be pretty awesome. The film maker referred to in the dream is a real woman who "friended" me on Facebook yesterday, explaining her otherwise random appearance in this dream. I have no idea why my mind chose Christina Hendricks.
