SURPRISING EDNA By Tony Cane-Honeysett - A comedy short starring my mum, who'd always wanted to act.
Фильм және анимация
My mum always wished she’d been an actress, so I wrote this short comedy for her as the main character. We filmed it one rainy night in London in 2010. She was 81 years old and recovering from a stroke, which had left her partially disabled but she gave it her best shot, though she tended to ignore the script and ad-libbed her lines, which confused the other two actors, played by my brother and nephew. #comedyshort #amateuracting #marycanehoneysett #painting #arttheft #London #funny #disabled #familyfilm #actingdebut #senioractress #artheist #funnyfilm #britishcomedy #actingaudition #Fulham #Londonlife #comedic acting #voxbox @MaryCaneHoneysett

Ahhh! Bless her! The fact she ignored the script and ad-libbed her lines, made me love her even more!!
I watched the first two films you made of your mom and really enjoyed them. Her paintings are wonderful. This little clip was so enjoyable, your mom is a sweetheart.

Sadly, Mary passed away in 2016. But yeah, I think she would have gotten quite a bit of acting work. She seemed to be a natural. @jeffreysherring2636

This is a fab film and is a credit to Edna an artist to be recognized in this modern world today with the honour to see how the London life was a community and Edna had passion in her artistry to show the world her fantastic works of everyday buildings those that may have gone or even exist today.God bless her.

Absolutely fabulous! It would easily be curated at Cannes or other international film festivals, it’s so well done. What a delightful character your Mom was, and she was so blessed to have you in her life. The three gorgeous films you’ve made of her say it all. You clearly loved her and held her in high regard.
I love your mother’s artwork. Her paintings are gorgeous. Wish I could own one.
Truly great! I had become her fan and it was wonderful to see her in this delightful film! A lovely legacy to your mother’s talents ❤️
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
LOL…I didn’t see the tea trolley coming 🤣🤣
Soooo funny😂Brilliant. Loved her appearing with the tea trolley... 👌👏😂
I thought it was very well done. Lovely acting, lovely story.
LOL, she must have enjoyed the family fun.
Delightful! I just found your channel today and I've watched both your documentaries about your Mom. I really enjoyed them. She was quite an inspiring woman and I'm sure you miss her a great deal.

What a treasure! Thoroughly enjoyed that skit 😀
Oh this was priceless. She's wonderful!
I thoroughly enjoyed this little film, your Mom was quite funny. I did catch the documentary film about your Mom's unique talent, and thought her paintings are amazing......the details are superb
Oh I wish I could have met her when she visited Nashville, where I lived those years! I even have a picture with the same guitar she posed by! What a cute skit..she was an excellent actress. A multi-talented lady at all counts. Thanks for making this!
She could have been a favorite on the BBC!

I only just discovered your two wonderful documentaries a few days ago, and now this! I am full of admiration for your mother's paintings, and her spirit.
She was a real jewel and treasure! Id have loved to be her friend🤗💖🙏👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
A star is born...
That was wonderful. So very enjoyable. I just loved it all and your Mom was fantastic!
Artistic talent is obviously in your DNA. Encore.

It is a bit of a masterpiece, actually!
Thank you Tony. That was delightful…and yes I LOVED the other two docs you have made about your Mum. I come from a family of artists and am aware of the snobbery in art circles. Please update us should Mary’s paintings have become acknowledged … I have confidence that her work will be recognised for its worth and beauty one day.❤

Yes I think in a few decades her work will be collected and extremely expensive. Quite often talented artists don't get recognition until after they've gone.
Mary and Laurence are alike as two peas in a pod.
Absolutely fabulous xx
Very good. Just watched the doco on your mum; she was quite the gal.
That was great very professionaly done what a lovely women . I did enjoy the video of her paintings and when she took them to that gallery, can’t help but admire her 😊
That was a delight.
🤩❤👋👋
That was a real treat!, thank you for creating and sharing it!, what a star Edna is!. Well done to whomever wrote the script?.
Loved it and still laughing🥰
Oh I love it!!😂 I did watch your films on your Mom. She's a treasure! I so agree with her on her take on modern art, and such. I draw and paint myself, but never really thought of myself as an artist. I, like her, paint for myself, not what's "hot" at the moment. I appreciate realistic art, the details in it. She was SO talented. I wanted her to show in the art show so bad. ♥
She was great! Made me laugh. Actually the whole thing was entertaining and well done.
Hilarious! Totally love this and Edna, my mum was from the same generation, true gold xxx
Absolutely brilliant ❤
What fun! Your mother was a gem. I would imagine the family had a great time filming this. Thank you for sharing ♥

Delightful film and wonderful seeing her having fun doing this.
great fun
Ah this is brilliant. Your mum was a natural. I think she would have been a great actress. Her art is fantastic. I like all the details and I like that she captured parts of London that some of us may not have seen. I love how Her work captures real life and how the buildings were before the changes. I love the peeling paint and the broken masonry in some of her pieces. It is important history. Her work needs to be kept Safe and cherished forever. Thanks for sharing.

This is brilliant! Huge fan of your moms , and, of your last two documentaries on her and her work. I am really impressed with the whole project. Thanks for sending from an artist in Vermont. It turns out she’s also a really good actress! By the way, I represent my fathers works who showed at the Tate in London ,who was English and also became difficult to sell though I keep going with the idea. Kindred spirits!
