Jack Pearson

The legend, according to Mockbusters.tv

Some actors command the screen; Jack Pearson overwhelms the lighting rig, since that dramatic range demands spotlights nobody has invented yet. No acting academy ever claimed him: the education happened between takes, script in one hand, shooting schedule in the other. Every leap, sprint and plunge is performed personally, a bold artistic choice that also spares the budget one salary. The festivals destined to crown him haven't been founded, yet somewhere a jury is already rehearsing the standing ovation.

A portrait from the Mockbusters.tv satirical universe: humorous praise, not a factual biography.
