Remind me, Idle Thoughts, and I’ll try to get you a ticket for the premier of my latest feature. We wrapped production in April and it should be ready by this fall. I don’t have a concrete date yet because directors are weird about festivals and festivals are just weird.
Yes I think that’s it!
Also, my friend Karen was in a Queer Eye episode and my exboyfriend was in a Trading Spaces episode lol.
Oh and I was interviewed on camera for a documentary about Burning Man in 1998 but I haven’t tried to track it down.
I played a refugee from America in The Fire Next Time, with Craig T. Nelson and Bonnie Bedelia, a mini-series shot in Pittsburgh in 1993. I was in the long line outside the Canadian refugee center, but you can’t see me there. My friend and I had the idea to be at the end of the line, so it would be easy to spot us, but they never showed the end. 
Later, they show a panning shot inside the “refugee center” in which a heavyset guy with a beard and a suitcase is walking left to right, then pauses. That’s me.
Probably easier to see is another shot that ends with the 2 kids looking at a newspaper with the headline, “Alaska secedes from the U.S.” I’m in the shot a few seconds prior to the newspaper closeup, walking up the aisle towards the camera between 2 border guards.
In all, a little more than 15 seconds on-screen. My friend, a veteran extra, was pissed I had screen time and he didn’t 
The old factory where it was shot was in pretty bad condition. I wandered off-set a bit during a break, but I cut that short when I got the impression I could have easily injured myself and no one would find me for a long time. Also, the black stuff they put in the air to make it murky-looking came out my nose for 2 days. Nasty.
Though I gave directions on how to find me, I don’t recommend it. It’s not a very good mini-series, and I’m not so good-looking as to make it worth suffering through.
I’m an extra in the opera scenes in The Age of Innocence. I sat in the first row of the audience at the Philadelphia Academy of Music, in the rightmost seat facing the stage. I’m in the background in the opening scenes with Daniel Day Lewis, Michelle Pfeiffer, Winona Ryder, and Geraldine Chaplin talking in their proscenium box, but I’m really only discernable at the point where some of the actors move around in the box.
Howdy again! 
:Bubble Burst: Sorry, not me. I’ll have to look for that one. I’m sitting in a booth, and I get a couple of face-shots. That’s about it.
As a speaking role? I really enjoy Flashpoint, and while The Listener’s lead actor is totally adorable, I have a feeling they’re going to run out of plot ideas soon.
You should be getting a couple fractions of a cent for that movie from 2006, because I went out and bought it twice for my sister’s birthday! It was one of her favourite movies as a kid. Canada Post was nice enough to lose the first package, so when they sent me money to cover the cost of the movie, I bought it again and shipped it a second time. That one did make it, though it somehow took 3 weeks (rather than the expected 1 week for that package rate). I swear one day they will find a postal worker in Charlottetown with an apartment full of stolen mail, because getting something to my sister is damn near impossible!
My deal wasn’t so grandiose as to involve points, so unfortunately I didn’t receive any of your largesse.
I was an extra in the miniseries Into the West.
I was one of the mountain men in the tent city in (IIRC) Episode 1. You can see me in various crowd shots where we were all gathered to watch an auction and a duel, but my best appearance was standing behind two of the leads who were talking in the saloon. Those who know me had no trouble recognizing me in that scene.
I was even in one of the stills that was in the novelization of the story.
I think it’s because we expected her to the next it girl after Scent of a Woman. I watch a lot of TV and movies and my thoughts on her are “Scent of a Woman, disappeared, wow, she’s back in a crappy Lifetime movie and looking really old”. Maybe I just haven’t watched the right things.
The year before Katrina hit, they filmed a movie called “Glory Road” here in the New Orleans’ area during the summer. I’m an extra in that movie as are a couple of my relatives. I had to chop my hair into a buzz cut and wear a sweater in an indoor gym for two days without A/C while they filmed footage of the first game they played. You can see me in a few of the far shots, I’m in the sparsely populated stands about 3 or 4 rows behind the home team bench. In that same sequence, I am in the shot in the background when the two boosters are complaining about black kids being on the starting line-up (the movie is about the first all-black NCAA basketball starting lineup at UTEP in the 60s) The two extras I was sitting with were not into the filming and complained the whole time. I loved the experience and thought it was fascinating to be able to watch the movie being made. I also like the fact that when I go to the DVD rack at Target or Walmart, I know there is (usually) a movie there with me in it!
