HELD HOSTAGE IN MY HOUSE (formerly called Blunt) was written and directed by Anna Elizabeth James (Deadly Illusions). It stars Amy Smart, Matt Davis, NE-YO, Billy Zane, and Greer Grammer. The film has a running time of 87 min and was rated TV-14 by the MPAA. Netflix released the film on October 15. I had the amazing opportunity to chat with female filmmaker Anna Elizabeth James. Anna is all about empowering and telling stories specifically for women. We go into what it takes to make a film, we even chat on the unknown business side, sales reps, distro, and so much more.  Dive into this impactful episode, be sure to take notes and share with other female entrepuerars.  https://www.instagram.com/annaelizabethjames Shout out to Valentina Sarfeh as all of her artwork is featured in the film!
