If you love Caddyshack and Happy Gilmore, then you'll love Birdies, a new film featuring soap alum Sydney Penny (ex-Julia Santos, All My Children; ex-Dr. Liv Norman, Days of our Lives; ex-Samantha Kelly, The Bold and the Beautiful).
Available on Vimeo on-demand beginning Tuesday, February 22, the comedy is a modern underdog tale about a washed-up golf phenom who gets a job at a decaying golf community, Twin Pines, where maintaining a buzz is par for the course.
The film stars Zach Hanner as the top dog at Twin Pines alongside comic Ryan O'Flanagan as a hot-shot new pro, and together they set up a high-stakes showdown with a rival golf community. Penny also features in the film, as well as Nate Panning, Lily Nicole, and Ed Wagenseller.

She went on to play All My Children's Julia Santos from 1993 to 1996, and again from 2005 to 2008, with a few guest-starring appearances in between. Her other soap credits include Sunset Beach's Meg Cummings in 1999, B&B's Samantha Kelly from 2003 to 2005, and DAYS' Dr. Liv Norman in 2011.
