Michael
About the Job
Awkward, neurotic, but an ultimately well-meaning kid. Michael spends the movie spiraling between guilt and a compulsive need for the truth. The role demands sharp comic instincts, an inclination for physical comedy, and genuine dramatic weight in the climactic garage scene opposite his mother. This actor carries the film. Ultimately, we need to root for him in his quest to heal his family’s wounds.
