Bob Garver Special to the Village News "A Man Called Otto" has not been a well-marketed film.

Come to this movie to get the opposite of that. See his versatility as he complains in a phony-sounding growly voice for 90% of the movie, followed by a heartwarming turnaround so sweet that most of the a... Full story
