Boston Movie Extra

Well from a couple of weeks ago I had mentioned thatI had lost the stand-in job for Mark Ruffalo on Ashcliffee because I was 2 inches too short. Well I guess the other guy didn't work so they called me in. Well I just came back after 13.5 hoursand let me say what an experience! I mean working on a scorsese set is something else, in my eyes it's not your typical set..it strickly business no room for failure. So it was a great education , great crew , and nice people. Mark Ruffalo is by far on on the most down-to-earth guys you will ever meet, and I respect him for that. As far as the continueation of this job they have to try another guy tommorrow and we will se who has the job next week I guess. It's all about....what do you think it's about....it's about 2 inches in height.

And I mean that in actuallity, I was called to be Mark Ruffalo's stand in in the Scorsese film "Ashcliffe" based on the book Shutter Island. I was called in where I was competeing for the job with two other guys. After 8 hours all three of us were called in where we were in a room surrounded by people and a very nice Mark Ruffalo and Martin Scorsese. Mark wished us luck and we all stood in a straight line next to Mark and were photographed. I stood on Mark's left side and right there I knew I had lost the job because I could see I was shorter by two inches. Anyhow they thanked us for being flexible and one of the guys that I was competeing with won the job. Nice guy, I wished him luck and headed home. All in all it was a honor to be in a room with Scorsese and got to meet a person such a Mark Ruffalo. Everyone all around were such A+ people, but who knows I might get called for something else. Sometimes you just have to fit the suit.
