I may be wrong, but I think I read that she did this movie MAINLY for Daniel bc he was more comfortable behind the camera, and she wanted to help him ‘learn the ropes’ or something like that. I believe he was an “Associate Producer” of the movie. I may be mistaken, but my take on this movie, was that it was all about Daniel for her (which is why she invested money into it). Also, I do not believe that she ever considered herself an ‘actor’ in the true sense of the word. To me, she seemed to know her limitations as far as acting, and would have been satisfied just being a public figure...as long as that ‘role’ kept her in the public eye! Like I said, I may be mistaken, but from what I’ve read, my take on that movie is that she did it SOLELY for Daniel...for him to get experience in movie-making behind the camera. Everyone can say what they will, and I will agree that she was NO ‘mother of the year’ but I believe she loved Daniel with all her heart and wanted the best for him.

"Anna Nicole Smith's Film Finale at the Cannes Film Festival in May"
Anna Nicole Smith's last ever film is to receive its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. The festival will be held from May 16-May 27.
'Illegal Aliens' was originally intended to be released in April but her untimely death and the subsequent legal battles surrounding her burial place and the paternity of her daughter Dannielynn pushed the date back to next month.
The movie will now be shown at the world famous movie event shortly after it is released on DVD on May 1 in the US.
It is being screened "out of competition", meaning it won't be eligible for any of the festival's prizes.
In the film, Anna Nicole plays one of three extra-terrestrials who can "morph into super-hot babes and arrive to protect the earth from the intergalactic forces of evil".
