“The Bandit,” (formerly titled Joint Body) my third feature endeavor, is about an ex-con navigating the murky waters that go along with being a parolee and making a bad decision that puts him back on the run. It’s slick, sexy, well-acted and offers dynamic performances by Mark Pellegrino, Alicia Witt and Ryan O’Nan.

The film was shot in only 12 days and premiered at the Newport Beach International Film Festival. It was released on a number of outlets including Netflix, Amazon Prime and DVD. I plan to release it again on Amazon Prime next year.
