Film Atkinson at the Olive Garden

Posted by David Koon on Fri, Aug 31, 2012 at 10:30 AM

A filmmaker in NYC is doing a project in which he has real-life actors do dramatic readings of reviews found on the recommendation site Yelp.com Seen above is Little Rock-born actress Ashlie Atkinson reading a diner's Yelp review of the Olive Garden in Times Square. The emotion she puts into expressing her love for the OG's little chocolate mints alone oughta be worth at least a Golden Globe.
