That of the wonderfully rich character of Sam (played by Katie Michels). Sam subverts the typical girlfriend role in this film and refuses to play into a shallow, single faceted stereotype. Instead, Michels brings the depth of a complex and multi-directional woman who knows where the line is, and how to deal with those who cross it. Sam\u2019s character is one who can see the deeper side behind Anthony and his often inappropriate babbling, and yet, knows when the relationship is taking a toxic turn.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.invitednyc.com\/opinion\/?author=51395e6ce4b0f3422dd60151\">INVITED NYC<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/?attachment_id=714\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-714\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-714 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/SHUTUPANTHONY_PHOTO09.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"382\" height=\"163\" srcset=\"http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/SHUTUPANTHONY_PHOTO09.jpg 1000w, http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/SHUTUPANTHONY_PHOTO09-300x128.jpg 300w, http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/SHUTUPANTHONY_PHOTO09-768x327.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 382px) 100vw, 382px\" \/><\/a>&#8220;But the performances are excellent, and when that girlfriend (the very good\u00a0<b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm4745683\/?ref_=tt_cl_t1\">Katie Michels<\/a><\/b>, above) turns up at the timeshare, things arrive at a nicely foaming climax involving photos important to both families and a very necessary detente.&#8221; &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/trustmovies.blogspot.com\/2017\/05\/kyle-eatons-shut-up-anthony-to-screen.html\">TRUST MOVIES<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;D&#8217;Esposito&#8217;s rapport with Katie Michels, as Sam, early in the film is hilariously awesome and uncomfortable with Michels, as well, playing it all off quite perfectly. &#8220;- <a href=\"http:\/\/theindependentcritic.com\/shut_up_anthony\">THE INDEPENDENT CRITIC<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>LIVE THEATER<\/h2>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/?attachment_id=233\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-233\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-233 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/1961925_669768896413649_1081705915_o.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"508\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/1961925_669768896413649_1081705915_o.jpg 2048w, http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/1961925_669768896413649_1081705915_o-300x196.jpg 300w, http:\/\/katiemichels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/1961925_669768896413649_1081705915_o-1024x671.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 508px) 100vw, 508px\" \/><\/a>&#8220;This production is particularly spritely, featuring a vibrant, expressive performance by the always funny Katie Michels as Bad Kitty\u201d\u00a0<\/span>&#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.portlandmercury.com\/true-parent-10\">The Portland Mercury\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Katie Michels is a purrfect measure of a feline for young audiences, playing not just on the physical grace of the esteemed pet, but also with some junior physical comedy that will leave your tummy with some butterflies.&#8221; &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.orartswatch.org\/bad-is-good-the-cats-meow\/\">Oregon Arts Watch<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The show&#8217;s sketches are loosely tied together with scenes from <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Good Morning Portland<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a horrible TV morning show, hosted by horrible TV morning show hosts, played horribly perfectly by Katie Michels and Josh Stenseth.\u201d &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.portlandmercury.com\/portland\/life-love-and-genetically-modified-corn\/Content?oid=9717567\">The Portland Mercury<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Katie Michels makes a great flying-squirrel wannabe, all stubbornly scrunched face and daffy delivery\u201d &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wweek.com\/portland\/article-22391-i-sidekicks-i.html\">Willamette Week<\/a><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EXTRA EXTRA READ ALL ABOUT IT&#8230;.
