It&#8217;s a clever twist on the typical love triangle and has many fine moments. I have enough experience with film\/videography to know how much work goes into finishing a project like this, so I have to tip my hat to anyone who puts that much energy into a movie with no budget. I can&#8217;t wait for the day when someone gives Andrew the time, dollars, and support to do his best work. I know it will happen because this lad has more persistence than almost any other creative  person I&#8217;ve ever known. He&#8217;ll be successful because he&#8217;ll never quit trying. I recall the only time I ever heard my friend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.xorph.com\/nb\/nb.cgi\/search\/uj?q=Danny&amp;submit=Search\">Danny<\/a> talk in public about being an actor, and there were a lot of young people present wanting to know how to break into &#8220;the industry.&#8221; He told them not to wait for somebody else to hand over an opportunity, but to just get a camera and start creating. I don&#8217;t believe Andrew was there that night to hear the advice, but that&#8217;s exactly what he&#8217;s been doing for as long as I&#8217;ve known him. He&#8217;s a talented, good-looking young man, but it&#8217;s his focused will to make it happen on his own that will be the key to his eventual &#8220;discovery.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m trying to figure out how to say something about Andrew&#8217;s new film without spoiling it for someone who wasn&#8217;t at the Kentucky Theater opening last Friday night.
