She&#8217;s pretty oily, but not nearly as oily as her husband. They&#8217;re a charming, creepy and ambitious duo. It&#8217;s a send-up of everybody in New York.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Trying to get a child into an elite school has &#8220;&#8230;brought many a marriage down in New York City,&#8221; said Mulgrew.<\/p>\n<p>Mulgrew believes that her hometown audience will enjoy the movie. Iowa audiences have &#8220;a hell of a sense of humor. They&#8217;ll appreciate the naughtiness of the film. It&#8217;s not cute, not Disney. It&#8217;s for the sophisticated belly laugh.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For ticket information, head to the link located <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jiffd.com\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dubuque-born Kate Mulgrew will be at the Julien International Film Festival in Dubuque, Iowa on&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2413,2406],"tags":[2403,3595],"class_list":["post-11788","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cast-crew","category-star-trek-voy","tag-mulgrew","tag-the-best-and-the-brightest"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"T&#39;Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/cast-crew\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Cast &amp; Crew<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/star-trek-voy\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Star Trek: VOY<\/a>","tag_info":"Star Trek: VOY","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11788","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11788"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11788\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11795,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11788\/revisions\/11795"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11788"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11788"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11788"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
