“I would pay him anyway, even if I had an agent, but I do save a lot of money that way.” “And he only charges 10 percent,” says screenwriter Cheryl McKay. Making God your agent has its advantages in Hollywood. Interviews with Cheryl about The Ultimate Gift: We have won several awards for the film, including Heartland’s Crystal Heart Award, MovieGuide, and CAMIE: We hadn’t seen each other since, until she landed the role of Alexia (Abigail Breslin’s mother in the film). She and I used to do plays together at the Children’s Theater of Charlotte when we were in high school. It was also amazing to be reunited with Ali Hillis (who played Alexia in the film). I even got to throw them into a hospital scene as extras. My favorite part of the filming process was getting to bring my parents to the set for a couple of weeks. We shot the film in Charlotte, NC, where I lived for over 15 years. This story spoke to my heart on how precious life truly is and how one day really is a gift and should not be wasted. The story explores what’s most important in our lives, the gifts that surround us every day that we may accidentally overlook: Gifts like laughter, gratitude, giving, problems, dreams, and the gift of love. It came out in theaters in March 2007 and on DVD in August 2007. It starred James Garner, Brian Dennehy, Abigail Breslin, Bill Cobbs, Drew Fuller, and Ali Hillis. The Ultimate Gift was my first feature film release.
