ONE MORE ROUND
This independent release has its appeal thanks to its characters who come off as very real the kind of folks youd find in any office or local gym. Co-filmmakers Roy Jahangard and director Stephen Sepher, have created an often-warm tale about the need for change and discovering that goal is merely the key to opening the door on a life transition.
Jahangard actually loses 30 lbs in the film, as Rex transforms from an overweight, paunchy palooka into a far more confident man, leaner of mind as well and perhaps richer of heart.
Sephers most engaging vignettes come with a senior citizen poker game and various moments when Joseph Rex interacts with his cronies.
