He best description of the film is by comparing it to Robert Redford's classic Ordinary People.

"It feels like kind of that, I don't know, late '70s kind of romantic," he said. "Like romantic dramas were a little bit deeper than they are now. There are no heroes, there are no villains. Everyone in it is a good person. It's just sort of a good family trying to deal with tough times."

"I was so impressed,"co-anchor Maggie Rodriguez said of Rob's role. "I was so struck by how deep and how emotional and how conflicted your role was."
