​
In the film A Man Called Otto one of his best friends Rueben, portrayed by actor Peter Lawson Jones is an Afro American who meets Otto in the 1980s.
​
To portray and depict this character authentically a cultural understanding and sensitivity to an Afro American family in the 1980s was very crucial. This involved creatives from set dressing, wardrobe, vfx and other departments to be in constant communication and understanding of what that culture was. The result of those efforts ultimately helped portray a truthful and authentic representation of the character Rueben for that time period.
