Hello - I'm using this avenue of approach for information on how to send correspondence to the management for Michael Wincott. I simply want to get in touch with him and ask him some questions about his work in the very obscure film, Circle of Two made in Toronto circa 1980 with Richard Burton and Tatum O'Neal. Any assistance with this will be very much appreciated.
