Eilise Patton

Eilise Patton, honestly, she’s kind of a name you’ll bump into if you’re poking around the indie film circuit lately. She’s popped up in a few things that definitely don’t just blend into the background. First off, there’s “Cora and Sam Hate the Dentist” from 2022—now, that one’s got this quirky, almost painfully relatable vibe. We’re talking about two characters who’d probably rather walk barefoot on Lego than deal with their dentist appointments. Eilise brings this offbeat energy, making the dental anxiety both hilarious and weirdly moving. You’re laughing, but also, like, “Yeah, same.” Then roll into 2023, and she’s in “Bounce House.” This isn’t just kids’ party chaos; it’s got all this emotional baggage bouncing around—no pun intended. Eilise nails the sort of messy grown-up feelings that bubble up when you’re stuck in a place built for fun but dealing with anything but. She’s got great comedic timing but can turn around and hit you with a gut-punch moment when you least expect it. Oh, and “Moon Blood” the same year—total gear shift. We’re talking moody, darker stuff. She goes deep, really digging into the raw, complicated emotions that come with the territory. You see her range—funny, soulful, a little bit intense. And hey, fun fact, she just got hitched to Eric Heintze—June 2024. Seems happy, which is nice to see when someone’s career is taking off. Bottom line, Eilise Patton isn’t just a name in the credits; she’s the reason you’ll remember the movie when it’s over.
