July 2007:

Just booked a supporting role in the independent feature film STILL THE DRUMS, shooting in August from American Patriot Pictures, LLC. 
    Here's the synopsis (taken from breakdown services):
   
Award winning actor Talbot Perry Simons will make his directorial film debut with his controversial anti-war film 'Still the Drums'. 'Still the Drums' is a full length feature film with plans to go to major festivals and be released all before the next presidential elections in 2008.  Actor Jon Voight read the script and called the writer personally to praise the writing and the story.

STORY LINE: Missing in action in Vietnam since 1968, the remains of Lt. Jack E. Buchannon, U.S.M.C., are found, and identified...He is brought home as a fallen hero, posthumously awarded the medal of honor and buried with full military honors... His three best friends, also ex-marines and Vietnam combat veterans, meet in the back room of a closed bar immediately after attending the funeral...Get ready for a very different kind of war story...An anti-war story?...'Still the Drums'

I'll be playing one the main characters at age 21, AL.   Very emotional and poweful role, can't wait to shoot this. 
    More news soon, including on-set photos...

from an online reviewer:

RAN WILD is the tale of a father named Marty (Jason Shepard) and his two “tweener” sons-Joey (Eric Ancker) and Frankie (Carly Reeves). Marty, a single dad, wants to reclaim his youth by hitting the clubs and meeting some women for some possible ‘tail’. So he’s forced to bring his kids along! The entire play takes place in a unisex restroom at the club, where Marty, a no-nonsence dad, keeps his kids in order. Meanwhile, other patrons of the club use the restroom while Marty has his kids defend for themselves. The others at the club consist of a trio of bimbo party girls; Boo (Lauren Eckstrom), Beep (Kelsey Jesup), and Betty (Briana Lane), and a pair of over-the-top macho men, Vito (Albert Meijer) and Pookey (Trevor Algatt), complete with wearing sweat stained tank-top shirts, and a bevy of gold chains. This is not just another night at the club, but a evening of “survival” in the world of so-called family bonding and casual friendships. Morgan Early directs this play as a real quirky comedy that is real and surreal. The set, just a graffiti-spawned filthy restroom, fits the entire bill as to what this play is all about. It also goes to show one on what to do if one wants to go clubbing while taking care of the kids. RAN WILD is short and to the point! It’s even recommended to experience, especially if one is going to hit the joints that night after this show. After all, who knows…?
