Cubby Knowles is Garth Donovan's (Twelve) feature length indy about the story of Richard Lincoln who was once on the path to the golden life.  He had a beautiful girlfriend and was a top ranked long distance runner.  But today that life and person is a fading memory.  Out of a job and barely able to walk due to a nagging ankle injury, Richard spends most his time stalking his old love who is now marrying the mayor's son; a painful reality slammed home every time he sees one of the politician's campaign signs littered around town.

It isn't until he is turned onto YourPlace, an online community similar to MySpace, that Richard's situation begins to look better.  In the click of a mouse button he sets up an account randomly calling himself Cubby Knowles, promoting this alter ego as a sort of the Don Juan on the net.  He is destined to become the greatest lover on the web and win back his old flame's love by doing so.

Things change when Cubby meets Lachelle, on YourPlace and what can happen in the fast nature of today’s on-line world and the dangers of thinking without clicking.

In a sub-plot surrounding a teen idol, Lil' Apples, I play her manager and step-father, Sol Rothberg. He's not so nice.

It is a very dark and often hilarious comedy with some scenes that will be talked about for a long time to come.

I hope to see you there!

Peace,
