“High praise must go out to Laura Hunter who played Kate Keller since she stood out from the rest of the cast with a flawless performance as a tormented but devoted mother.”
– Claire Goget, The Washington Post
“I directed Laura in Redemption Falls, where she played the lead role of Fiona Donne. Laura was one of the first actors cast for this project in May of 2006. From that point through the end of principal photography in August 2007, she maintained a consistent level of dedication and high quality in her work. While she impressed me with her initial choices for this role, Laura soon showed herself to be a willing and insightful collaborator as we worked together to create her character. When we finally shot the film, Laura was a professional on set and with her coworkers. She understood the low-budget, independent nature of the project and adapted accordingly. As a result, the work Laura and I did together is something we’re both proud of. She was a joy to work with and I would do so again in minutes.”
- Brendan M. Leonard, Redemption Falls
“Laura was a pleasure to work with and I hope to work with her again in the future”
- Steve Prezant, Commercial Photographer
“The most wrenching moments usually involve Laura Hunter as the strong yet caring Kate Keller. Hunter absolutely commanded the stage and stole the show.”
–Sarah Weissman, Cappies Review
“Laura Hunter, who played Helen’s mother Kate, gave an astounding performance. She successfully demonstrated the anxiety Kate felt and her determination to get the help that her daughter needed.”
– Lisa Million, Cappies Review
“Laura was always punctual and a completely enthusiastic member of the cast of my short film “Sisters” during our production in Virginia in March 2007.”
- Gabriel Shalom, Sisters
“Laura Hunter played the young and stressed character of Kate Keller, in a role well suited for her. She shined in every scene that she was in. Her intonation and inflection made the role of a struggling mother even more emotional, and her southern accent was flawless. The weight of the Keller household and dealing with Helen fell on Mrs. Keller, and Hunter carried it off beautifully.”
- Rebecca Lear, Arlington Catholic Herald
“Laura Hunter, whose monologue about being a teen model, and Janna Stover, whose monologue about being a kid from the projects, acted their parts so well, it seemed they were speaking about their own lives, not reading scripts.”
- Christy McKay, The Winchester Star
