I'm searching for 'stats' about breaking into show business and 'this' lands on my desk.
'Lip augmentation has gained popularity as celebrities bask in the limelight'
Okay, now I'm distracted...You see, I'm looking for something a bit more shrewd, something that might shed light on a young actors life, like working hard at it because you love it and you want to be the best.
I know, I know, the whole working hard part is like sand in your mouth, and full lips, well, if you have them, flaunt them.
Okay, I'm losing ground, I'm nosing around for a story that celebrates the business of acting, such as training hard, harder than any elite athlete, and developing an indestructible no-nonsense big business sense. More Donald Trump and less Extreme Makeover.
But, I'm sidetracked by full lipped celebrities and their bad acting shockers, distracted by Jimmy Cho shoes and modeling naked, and then
wham, like the scent of sticky buns in Grand Central Station this phenomenally interesting cast of characters wakes up my hunger.
Phillip Seymour Hoffmann in Capote Felicity Huffman in Transamerica And Cynthia Nixon in Warm Springs
All serious minded, hard working, dyed in the wool New York City stage actors, winning awards for seriously cool projects and making over the enterprise!
Okay, now that's focused. This is the message... Anything you really want is hard to get. Be prepared and do your best.
And with that, consider the words of Phillip Seymour Hoffmann... 'I'm afraid I'll be the kind of actor who thought he would make a difference and didn't.'
