Leon Russom’s performance in The Midnighters has been selected as a Top 5 Performance of 2017 by Jason Coleman of Why So Blu? From the article: “A character actor for well over three decades, ample everyman Leon Russom finally gets a role worthy of his soulful on-screen prowess and in The Midnighters it’s a sight to be seen. Playing a retired safecracker out of prison that uses his ‘particular set of skills’ to save his son, Russom enlists equal parts emotion and expertise to create a complex man with serious back baggage who is forced to confront the demons in his past. A role he was born to play, Russom is the right man for the job.”
