Rosalind Resnick's Townhouse Confidential Wins Best Feature at New York City Independent Film Festival

Retrieved on:

Monday, June 20, 2022

NEW YORK, June 20, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Rosalind Resnick's romantic comedy Townhouse Confidential, a hilarious spoof of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice set in New York's West Village, has been named Best Feature at the New York City Independent Film Festival. The cast is headlined by Samantha Simone (Blue Bloods, You Follow Me), Lee Tyler (While He Talks, Bad Guru film collective), Jonas Barranca (Hightown, One Dollar), Joseph D'Onofrio (Goodfellas, A Bronx Tale), Danny Bolero (In The Heights, Low Tide), Ernest Pierce (DTLA, Dance Flick) and Pepi Streiff (By the Grace of Bob, Broad City). Producing for Townhouse Confidential LLC are Lawrence Scott (Goodbye Butterfly, From Mao to the Met) and Bob Shewchuck (Profit & Laws) with Patrick Perez Vidauri (In Other Words, Divorce Bait) directing from a script written by Rosalind Resnick, the author of the novel Townhouse Confidential and one of the film's executive producers. Other executive producers are Rob Simmons (Last Call) and Ante Novakovic (Sanctioning Evil).

Key Points:

"To see the novel that I finished in my West Village townhouse while New York City was shut down during the COVID-19 pandemic transformed into an award-winning feature film surpasses anything that I could have dreamed up as a storyteller," Resnick said.
Townhouse Confidential features a diverse multicultural and multigender cast reflective of Greenwich Village and its rich history as home to financiers and bohemians alike.
"And to shoot this movie on the streets of New York City in the middle of a pandemic was nothing short of miraculous."
Resnick, a New York real estate investor, technology entrepreneur (NetCreations, 1995-2001) and former Miami Herald reporter, published her novel, Townhouse Confidential, during the COVID-19 pandemic in August 2020 and adapted it as a screenplay in 2021.
