When Eddie Van Halen came to visit his then young bride on set (1985) I knew I was lucky to get cast in this movie. One of my scenes was shot at the old Sagebrush Cantina in Culver City. A crowded gambling bar where Valerie's character spirals deeper into her gambling addiction. In the later years this TV movie was used to educate real gamblers on the perils of addiction. How time flies.
