America Ferrera of “Ugly Betty” fame and Wilmer Valderrama of “That 70’s Show” were in town Monday night for a screening of their new flick, “The Dry Land,” a film that details one soldier’s scary struggle with post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD.
Ferrera originally signed on to the production as a producer, but then gained a role as the lead character’s wife.
“I couldn’t help but get more and more invested,” she said.
The star of the film, Ryan O’Nan, writer and director Ryan Piers Williams and the Creative Coalition’s Robin Bronk were also in attendance. After the screening the whole crew headed to a private dinner held at the Palisades home of Lani Hay, president and CEO of Lanmark Technology Inc.
