Once Again: My Nemesis.

Shooting the movie I wrote, produced and starred in was so rewarding. It was accepted into 45 film festivals, I made lifelong friends with the cast and crew, and director Ted Melfi went on to big-time stuff. It was all perfect until we were shooting at LA Center Studios and heard a loud bang. One of our lights was too close to the large window, and the heat cracked it badly.

There you have it: the one misstep of our shoot. The lone bruise on The Beneficiary banana.

And there I was on Friday, face-to-face with the window that cost me four figures. It’s been seen in many an episode of “Mad Men”, and it still mocks me. Well played, sir.
