Gone until tomorrow night

Eugene, Oregon
June 6, 2018 11:38am CST
At about noon today, I'll leave again for Portland, have and early dinner/snack with my daughter at about 4 PM, then, at 7 PM will be at a rather palatial home in Tualatin to film three short scenes. This is my Mafia boss role for a friend who is making the film called "Stars In His Eyes." I am attempting an accent for this and hope it does not sound too lame. There are even online accent coaches that helped out. The people who own this home are even serving dinner, which will be part of the film. We are to be finished by 9 PM and will head back to my daughter's house to sleep, then come home tomorrow. Have a great day on myLot!

@JamesHxstatic Even in Sicily the accent can be different according which area of the Sicily people come. I can recognize a Sicilian accent, but I am unable to say which part of Sicily, I am a northern.

@LadyDuck Accents differ a lot in the US as well and I hope that they continue to.

I'm sure it was not great Anna, but I did listen to some online coaching. They mentioned that accents differ a lot in different areas, especially Sicily.

My autograph would be like one of your neighbor's. There is a very big pot of actors in the area. I am anything but well-known.

This is the only one. It is story about how the Mafia gets swindled.
Directed by Paul Bright. With David Loftus, Paul Bright, Kurt Neugebauer, Mykk Mead. When the Mafia frames a chatty phone operator to take the fall for a horoscope hotline identity theft scam, it requires a much bigger heist to set things straight.

It sounds super exciting - it it a production made for the big screen and if so, do you have an estimated launch date?

It is an independent, low budget film. I'm not sure what the director, Paul Bright, has planned for it.

Like that other one called "Losing Addison," they are both independent films by different directors, so maybe they will submit them to festivals and see if someone wants to pick them up for distribution.
