Best Actor Award for David Greene
"David's performance was quietly assured...very natural and compelling to watch". Thank you Disappear Here Film Festival for David Greene's Best Actor Award! Much love to Michael McLaughlin for hand delivering the award to director Sinéad O'Loughlin last week. She managed not to drop it and handed it over to David at a screening at the weekend. Congrats again David!
