Of Dreams and Glory




Gerry Maher as Homer J. Doyle

Submitted for your approval...

Meet Homer J. Doyle, a pathetic old man whose meaningless life has slipped away. He's the night clerk, at a hotel for women, from days gone by. 'Of Dreams and Glory' is suspense, thriller that will make you say ”be careful what you wish for.”





Edward Lambert played by James Heffron (SAG)

Enter Edward Lambert...

a likable young man, whose innocent search for his sister turns into a dubious mission.






The Mayflower Hotel for women, in a place that time forgot.

Our Mission

This movie was made without anyone’s financial participation. Everyone involved generously donated their time, services and equipment because they believed in the project. We wanted to show the tenacity and talents of the actors and filmmakers involved and made this film, as a tribute to independent filmmakers everywhere -- to illustrate that if you have a story and a vision, it can be done. It’s not easy but in the end, it's worth all of the begging, borrowing and sweat, especially when you find the right people, that share a passion: making films at any cost. Not because you want to, but because you have to.






The Girls played by Sarah Anderson and Rachel Griffo

...Who live at the Mayflower Hotel




Sarah Anderson (SAG) was reluctant to take the part because she had such a small role but she rose to the occasion and put a face on and made us care about the women at the hotel.
