Rafael Sardina
Actor Rafael Sardina fell in love with stories from a very young age. "I remember dreaming of jumping into the fictional worlds I devoured as a kid, be they the movie universes of Swiss Family Robinson, E.T., or The Karate Kid, cartoon classics like M.A.S.K and G.I.JOE, or the plays of Nuestro Teatro (in his native Puerto Rico)." In his career he has had the fortune of working with personal heroes like Steven Spielberg, Jodie Foster, Dylan Baker, and Vincent D'Onofrio, among others. "I remember taking the morning pass van from Manhattan to New Jersey, chatting with Amy Ryan and Lenny Venito as we approached the massive set of the opening aria of a Spielberg movie, talk about a pinch me moment!" Rafael lives in Queens, New York with his wife Rachel and daughter Teresa, whose favorite movie, by the way, is The Karate Kid.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
