      to me Chaz one of the best actors in the top 10 maybe top five he's so good he's a he's a good guy in person he's a really upstanding guy he's he's not a bullshiter he's a straight-up solid dude I was his driver on the movie Jade that we did here in San Francisco and the teamster's Union and he was just a great guy wasn't rude was this awesome I mean was honor to work for him he was just a really good solid dude man I'll never forget that one of my favorites probably one of the best and that movie he wrote that was his script and he held onto it until he got his money he's the best
