Thank you so much, Ian.
That is Brett Rice that you are referring to.
He has over 64 major film and television roles under his belt...
With out question, he is best known for his role as Coach Tyrell in Remember The Titans.

Also...
more recently, he starred as Big Bob Jones, father of Jim Caviezel's title character in Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius

He accepted the role of Robert Hergewel III in "The Gaussian Project" because he loved the script, and felt it could further showcase his range as an actor. Of course I had to go through hoops with SAG to get the proper releases/waivers for him to appear in it.

Check out the Theatrical Demo on his website...

Yeah, I spent the majority of that last week prior to the shoot filing one form or another. Luckily for me, the local SAG executive is a stand-up guy, and was very helpful throughout.

darn Ed you got to grab my girl. you never told me, that i'm jealous, but then again she wasn't looking too beautiful on the movie.
 
Here is an extended scene that was trimmed down a bit. I loved this exchange between Kimko's Val and Brett Rice's Hergewel...


ANGLE - VAL

~who is now both sickened and furious.

VAL
So tell me, Hergewel- before you were able to locate this whore a vatic', what happened to these poor volunteers, as you so call them? Death?

Val closes his eyes.

VAL
No... far worse. They are... adrift in an endless parallel of darkness. Condemned men... forever to suffer.

ANGLE - HERGEWEL

HERGEWEL
(in an icy voice)
Collateral damage, Mister Corliss.

ANGLE - VAL

~the CAMERA MOVES with him as he crosses the room, stopping to peer out the window into the night.

VAL
(without turning)
Then, I suggest you go ahead and bottom line me, and make it quick. My patience has run its course.

TWO SHOT - HERGEWEL AND DARDEN

~who glance at one another.

DARDEN
(to Val)
As I'm sure you have determined, Le Berge went AWOL somewhere in the mid-to-late nineteenth century. We received one final transmission from him, which I can arrange for you to hear.

MED. SHOT - VAL

VAL
(still facing window)
Not necessary. He sounded mad, athirst for power. His ravings were those of one with an off-the-charts God Complex. Am I close?

ANGLE - DARDEN

DARDEN
That's it exactly, Val. We have...

ANGLE - VAL

VAL
(half turning)
Dammit, man! That was a rhetorical question. You have assembled a team to accompany the only other evolvatic you know -yours truly- to locate your Doctor Le Berge...and deliver his pink slip personally. If I fail to locate him
(Val makes a cut-throat motion with his thumb.)

ANGLE - HERGEWEL

HERGEWEL
Rather over-simplified for the possible complete destruction of the multiverse, Mister Corliss - even for you. You are our man, then?



Edit: Please excuse the format...things got a bit jumbled after copying and pasting.

He had his work cut out for him, having to be between yourself & Brett (I sure as poo poo wouldn't have wanted to be in that spot.)
He did a fabulous job in any case.

:dankk2:ravinesedge.
I feel personally that the quick over-lapping dialogue from cinema past was the best ever typed. I have been greatly inspired by screenwriters from the era of the late 30's -> the 50's throughout my own writing excursions. That is why I was more than a little moved when krestofre said,
...Everything is so calculated and carefully chosen. It reminds me of storries from the 40s and 50s. The kind of stuff that no one does anymore. Great.
Again, thank you for the praise. I am very appreciative of it. to say the least.

:beer:Here's to you, ravinesedge

Not sure that I knew what this film was about, but I did get quite engrossed in it. Thought the explosion at the end was quite good.
