  1. So glad to see Melissa is getting great roles. I think she is brilliant! Plus she's a great human being. When she was here filming a movie in Wilmington, there was an extra on the set who was verbally abusing her child all day. When Melissa saw that woman yank the child's arm she asked that she be removed from the set never to be returned again. Good for her!!!!
