Paul David Ostroski
- Actor
After years of commercial print work and community theater in
Connecticut and New York, Paul David Ostroski graduated to the silver
screen. Well, not exactly silver, or even bronze--maybe platinum is the
best way to describe the road that led him to his first feature film.
He proudly subway-ed himself to a sound stage in Queens, New York,
owned by Platinum Pictures, where the leading lady, Marilyn Chambers, greeted
him with utmost thespian charm. The project, Party Girls (1989), was so low-budget
that Paul had to play two different roles, one of them being a
glorified featured extra. In the credits for this film Paul was billed
incorrectly, but was grateful that they spelled his name right. Casting
director Felicia Fasano is also in this film. Years later, in Hollywood, Paul
continued to be a daring little fish in a very big pond, pumping out
many commercials, films and television projects regardless of what
continent or language they will be released in. In fact, most of them
will never be released due to lack of funding, collapsed distribution
deals and questionable subject matter. He's also been directed by
Alan Smithee in three films! This actor with many names believes that if
"the big break" occurs, it could happen in your 70s, so there shouldn't
be too much of a rush or an obsession to reach the top--especially in
your 70s.
