"If I Had Legs I'd Kick You," Scores Huge at Sundance with Mark Stolzensberg in Supporting Role

NEW YORK - Feb. 12, 2025 - PRLog -- Mark Stolzenberg is kicking it in a supporting lead in the A24 feature film, "If I Had Legs I'd Kick You", starring  Rose Byrne and Conan Obrian. The film is the hottest item at THE SUNDANCE INSTITUTE FILM FESTIVAL and is slated for theatrical release this year. The film has been getting rave reviews and Mr. Stolzenberg commands many memorable scenes with the star, Rose Byrne.

Mr. Stolzenberg shines in the role of, "The Parking Attendant" who is the comic nemesis to Rose Byrne's Linda – a fragile mom in crisis in this psychological drama. Stolzenberg is mentioned in Variety,

"If I Had Legs I Would Kick You," was previewed to rave reviews at the recent Sundance Film Festival, like this one from Screen Rant:

"Cinema that explores women in any of their roles has always had a special place in my heart. It's one that writer-director Mary Bronstein finds in Linda (Rose Byrne), If I Had Legs I'd Kick You's on-edge and overwhelmed protagonist. The film boasts a career-best performance from Byrne, who's been fantastic for years now, and she's rightly deserving of every praise."

Stolzenberg plays one of the foils to the Rose Byrne character who is besot by all manner of difficult folks who are "just trying to help." From "The Spool": "Mark Stolzenberg, as the parking attendant, brings comic relief with his perfect timing in the many confrontations with Linda."  Award Watcher puts it this way:

The film doesn't seem to question Linda's sanity. Or does it? The audience is privy to her headspace through the duration, so we're with her even when she starts behaving badly, like leaving her sleeping child unattended in the hotel room to fetch a bottle of wine from the front desk. And we can't forget when she goes full Karen on the hospital's parking attendant (Mark Stolzenberg).

Or this from The Hollywood Reporter:

"The clinic where Linda takes her daughter for treatment every day presents more headaches, not least the daily altercation with the parking attendant (Mark Stolzenberg)."

Stolzenberg has come a long way from his debut as a clown with dozens of film and TV roles. As founder and President of The New York Acting School for Film and Television in New York City, he helps actors looking to succeed in the film side of the business.
