Over the years, he played a wide variety of characters on both the big and small screen. He likes having the opportunity to create dreams for other actors.
“By giving up that [regular work], I found that I was able to create all the passions and create other dreams for people at the same time,” Young explained. “And that means more to me than anything, than being in front of the camera.”
Directs Joan Collins Film
