JOHN

Male - 70 to 80 yrsLead Union or Non union
Project title
CFC - STORY - THE LAST AMOROUS GAZE
Media
Short Film
Due date
Friday September 11, 2026
Submissions from
Toronto
Role description

Male, 70-80 years old, any ethnicity. John is Laura’s husband and the former owner of the house. Distinguished and neatly dressed, he leans on a cane, carrying the physical signs of age with a quiet dignity. Like Laura, John is attached to the house and to the life they shared there. He is simply grateful to have the chance to walk through it again. Unlike Daniel, however, John is comfortable with emotion and physical affection. He takes Laura’s hand, kisses her, dances with her, and isn’t embarrassed by tenderness.

There is also a mischievous quality to John. He enjoys drawing Claire and Daniel into the intimate world he and Laura have shared, gently testing their boundaries by inviting them to dance. His warmth should never feel performative or sentimental - it comes naturally to him.

Performance Reference: Tom Courtenay in 45 Years. John should be calm and composed, with a slightly mischievous edge. His wistfulness is mostly in the eyes. There is no need to make a big show of his emotions. Intimacy requirement: Kissing, slow dancing and sustained physical closeness with Laura, and slow dancing with Claire. In one scene John lies fully clothed on a bed with Laura in a still embrace. No nudity.

Male | Black Caribbean Ernest, affectionately known as Poppa E, is an elderly man with advanced cancer. Though physically frail and declining, his warm, playful personality remains strong. He shares a special bond with his granddaughter, Samantha, who treats him like the grandfather he has always been—not a sick old man. Their playful moments allow him to forget his illness and reconnect with her. Knowing his time is limited, Ernest uses their final moments together to pass on wisdom and remind Samantha to hold onto her kindness, curiosity, and ability to bring joy to others. Warm. Funny. Gentle. Wise. Playful. Frail. Loving. Quietly accepting.
