NBC has one heck of a Thursday night line-up. I’m not kidding. You gotta love THE OFFICE and the SNL THURSDAY NIGHT LIVE. But taking the cake tonight is our very own Madison Davenport guest starring on ER. They are in their final fifteenth season and tonight’s episode is called, “Parental Guidance.” Please check her out at 10pm tonight then leave comments on how you think she did!

Hi, my name is Madison Davenport, I am 11 years old, in 6th grade and I play Caroline in the movie! It was ssssoooo fun working on the set of THE ATTIC DOOR. Everyone was so nice and I made a lot of really great friends! We filmed the movie in Utah (I still have the red dirt on my shoes to prove it). When you see the movie than you can definitely tell that all the locations we shot were gorgeous!
The movie itself is beautiful too. I got to work with Jake Johnson who played Darrel, we go to school together! I also got to work with the most awesome directer ever (not even exagerating) Danny Daneau. My whole experiance was amazing and I loved watching the movie. Oh wait I’m getting ahead of myself! My character Caroline is very motherly and is very strict yet loving at the same time. During the movie she is always hoping and knowing that her parents will come back. Now Darrel on the other hand is very childlike and playful yet he seems to want to care for his sister.
Danny is an amazing director, he lets you put a little bit of youreself into your character. I had so much fun. Thank you soo much Danny and thank you to everyone who helped put this project together!
LOVE,
Madison Davenport

In other news, our lead actress Madison Davenport’s new movie, Humboldt County, opened yesterday in select theatres. Madison has been recieving some wonderful reviews. Here’s a sample:
“She’s a magnetic presence who remains cute and funny throughout, but avoids being overly precocious, a la Dakota Fanning.” – NICK MOORE The Daily Californian
“Charity (Madison Davenport), who despite being in grade school and constantly surrounded by marijuana smoke is sharp, bright and embodying the innocence of youth. 4.5/5.” Martin Malloy – SF Station
“Also watch for a great 11-year old girl performance by Madison Davenport, from whom we’ll be seeing more, I guarantee it.” – Christian Kallen- PressDemocrat.com
