A director's comment:

"Robert, I just wanted to take some time to thank you for your important acting contributions for my film. It was an important scene and you nailed the character. I can honestly say that everyone who has seen it has specifically commented on what a great casting decision we made. I can also honestly say no I can't take most of the credit and that it was all you. I really do appreciate your time and effort and talents. I am very fortunate to have crossed paths with you."

Ulysses Giumarra (writer / director)
