Meet our Talented Cast!

|
 | ALLIE RAYE (Charly) is one of Hollywood’s favorite character actresses. In the role of Charly, she gives the viewer an opportunity to see her many levels of talent. Allie has been very lucky with her career. She was hand picked as the Hamburger Mom by Steven Spielberg for Minority Report. The role was written for her after he saw her audition tape. Spielberg called Allie “A Jewish Soprano.” She and Tom Cruise worked side by side and kept him laughing the entire time. The multitalented Eric Stoltz, directed her in an episode of Once and Again, and like Spielberg, created extra scenes for her after watching her work. Read more in the Press Kit.
