"It always amazes me just how many people it takes to do a film like this. Each step is so important and none of it can be accomplished without the talent and dedication of everyone involved." This Man's Life, co-written by Thompson and Stars North™ story man Pete Raymundo, features a respectable cast of local artists - like little tyke Sammy Fender who plays actor Zach Braff's son on the NBC series Scrubs and Orlando's Channel 6 News Associate Producer Forrest "Frosty" Respess who, at the young age of 81 years old, moonlights as a commercial, movie and theatre actor. The film also features local actor, Randy Molnar, whose resume boasts over 41 film credits including Larry the Cable Guy - Health Inspector, Delivery, Second Coming and most recently, a leading role in The Tenant which was filmed this past summer at Orlando's new Studio 500 at the University of Central Florida. Fender, Respess and Molnar all play pivotal roles in the film. Like so many of their other films, Stars North™ produced This Man's Life on a shoestring budget, attracting notable Hollywood names and offering opportunities for local cast and crew to get involved. "It's been an exciting and positive experience for everyone" says co-producer Smithy Sipes. "We can't wait to doing it again on the next one!"
