Jamison Selby, born smack in the middle of New York City on May 5th, 1969, is the kind of guy who’s probably seen it all—at least if you’re talking about the indie film scene. You’ve got to give him credit, though; he’s not just another face in the crowd. He’s got his fingerprints all over a few cult classics, and if you dig around, you’ll find his name attached to "Puddle Cruiser" from ’96. That movie? It’s one of those low-key gems that people stumble on and wonder where it’s been hiding all their lives. Selby doesn’t just act—he writes, too. Kind of a double threat, but in a chill, not-flashy way. A couple years later, he popped up in "One Take" (1998), which, let’s be honest, is a title that sounds like it means business. The dude’s style is laid-back but sharp, like he’s the kind of guy who cracks a joke before nailing a scene in one shot. Then, fast forward to "Duel" in 2007, and you see him flex his chops again. He’s not exactly Hollywood royalty, but that’s the charm. Selby’s career is all about those off-the-beaten-path projects, the kind you brag about discovering first. New York roots, indie cred, and a no-nonsense approach to both acting and writing—that’s pretty much the Jamison Selby vibe.
David Selby pops up in the credits as the father, and man, that’s a bit of casting trivia some people miss. You might know him from his brooding days on “Dark Shadows” or maybe from “Falcon Crest”—classic TV stuff, right? Anyway, his role as the dad isn’t just a cameo; he brings a sort of quiet authority to the whole dynamic. The character isn’t the center of the drama, but he’s always lurking in the background, shaping stuff in ways the main characters barely notice. There’s this old-school gravitas to him, like he’s holding back a lifetime of secrets. He doesn’t get tons of screen time, but every scene he’s in? You feel the weight. It’s almost like the story uses him as the emotional anchor—everything messy and chaotic around him, but he’s steady, unflappable. It’s subtle, but honestly, the movie wouldn’t hit quite the same without his presence.
