Robert fell into the movie trap at 7 with Ray Harryhausen, advanced through the Marx Bros, the Coen Bros, Howard Hawks, Spielberg, and the holy trinity of Ozu, Tati, and Truffaut, and now loves too many to possibly list. He’ll watch an old movie before a new one every time, and a comedy before a drama, but mostly he’ll watch just about anything. He’s a writer, teacher, and student in Texas, where he lives with his wife and little boy, both of whom know all about his crush on Myrna Loy.
