An acting career has to start somewhere...In 1972 I was cast in "Bummer". I played a musician in a rock group called "The Group". Our bass player turned out to be a psycho who killed groupies. No academy award nominations for this one. It played at drive-in theaters over the summer. Remember Drive-ins? The psycho bass player was played by Dennis Burkley. We became friends and have been friends to this day. One of the perks of the acting business.
Dennis went on to have a terrific career. "Sanford" with Redd Fox, "Mask", "Murphy's Romance", "Tin Cup" to name a few. Hurray for Hollywood!

Too bad the Razzies weren't around then, eh? Your film was probably ahead of its time!
