I had the pleasure to work with a director, Angela Lopez , who told me the story of her father, Roy "Lucky" Lopez, a U. S. Marine military veteran. I felt determined to share his story in a film format and convinced my actor friend Steve Dellatori to write and perform the story. We are so pleased with the results.
