WINNER of the Cleveland 48 Hour Film Project Best Film, Best Direction, Best Editing, Best Use of Prop and... BEST ACTOR! Yep... ME!
Striving for Excellence Rick was one of the most inspirational actors I've ever worked with because he brought so much to the table with him. Those attributes led to help rewrite portions of his character, to add more dimension, and also helped in the assistance of a more active blocking plan. He maintains a highly professional attitude while also boosting the set's crew and cast around him with humor and stories. By far one of the easiest actors I've ever worked with due to his flexibility, collaboration, and desire to not only just play a role, but build that character through both his and my perspective." Shawn Bronson, director "Half Full"
I am an EQUITY actor (also SAG and AFTRA eligible) that tries to bring something different to each role whether it's a comedy or drama... throw whatever I can "to the table".
But ultimately, it is the director's project and what I do best is take direction and 'grow' with it. I follow (what I call) "The 3 Ps", be Prepared, Professional, and Pleasant.
Full resumes (AEA stage, film/TV), reels, references, and reviews are available if you wish.
Below and on the 'videos' page are a few olders samples of my work. Newer pieces are available on my reels.
Sincerely, Rick Montgomery Jr. (rick1987@hotmail.com).
THE WARDEN (Drama)- A warden finds himself trapped in a prison of his own making. Shot at the Mansfield Reformatory and directed by LA director Ryan Patrick Finn
CIRCLE TRACK SUMMER (Comedy)- In this project, I play an (slightly effeminate... yeah right) imaginary friend that helps the female lead (a race car driver) win her dreams.
THE WORLD WITHOUT US (Drama)- A documentary by LA director Jason Tomaric and producer Mitch Anderson which illustrates what could happen in the USA if our Rights were violated like those in many other of todays countries. In this scene my family and possessions have just been seized by the Government.
First trailer from the project PUT THE LIGHT OUT. A Mother and Father find their daughter shot... who's at fault...
Who I'd like to meet: Directors who work with their actors.
Casting directors willing to take a chance on someone they don't know.
Anyone who is willing to give this older actor (I retired from a 30 year business career in 2001 to pursue this dream... but I'm not THAT old) an opportunity to show what I can do.
I am willing to travel anywhere... I AM RETIRED! I'M FREE TO GO! and willing to work under any conditions (okay ALMOST any) and just for the cost of my expenses... GAS is expensive.
