We worked tirelessly to get the script better and find someone who resembled my likeness much better, but the shoestring budget left few possibilities. That's the inside joke about, "Why it wasn't perfect"! It was a fun short, but I should have played myself!
There was a lot of real life material that was cut from the story and probably should have been due to the sensitive nature of relationships with popular figures and experiences that cast their actions in a questionable light. All scenes had to be trimmed to fit the Final Cut length and scenes that would have shown me in a more interesting and heroic way suffered and like the name, it wasn't perfect!
