This guy we used to always see down the beach, when we went there on weekends sometimes, who we called 'Bibby bence', as he had a speech impediment, and the only thing he ever said to people was 'Bibby Bence', as he was always asking for 'Fifty Pence', we got some footage of him on super-8, unfortunately no sound though: to come up at the end of the credits....*and* Dustin Hoffman as 'Bibby Bence'

Best movie ever.

Now THAT'S a movie I'd like to see. I hope it'll be in 3D! :awesome:
 
Since I'm at a top film studio where execs and the VP see talent in me as a writer and are interested in my story about growing up in a haunted house, lmaol, this actually might become a reality.

Me:

Father (grew up in my hometown, lends 'authenticity'):

Mother:

I'd say what really made me decide on Steve McQueen Jr. is his portrayal of Jeremy in 'Vampire Diaries.' It showed me he has a great time playing a troubled character that gets into trouble, but you still like the guy. Kinda important since my 'character' goes all 'Amityville Horror' father whacko towards the end lol. Plus he has mixed ethnicity, kinda important in my life and to the story. I can't, obligated not to, say anything beyond that. If you see a trailer in an upcoming year written by the guy who lived it - that'd be your hype friendly Spider-Man. It's still surreal to think about. Unsure what it means if your real life story is a horror movie though, lol.
