Angels everywhere!


Rescheduling the K scene has been a trip.  Deciding to use a different actor to free up my previous actor for another scene, choosing a new location, picking a time, finding a shooter, oh my oh my oh my, it has been something else!

I really feel like it will be a great scene and because it's from a movie that unlike the others, people actually do have a familiarity with, it's important to me for it to be wonderful.  The location is going to be gorgeous thanks to Mike Kraft who recommended it and Dawn Lafferty who is providing it.  The shooter is the magnificent Devon who is coming to the rescue and going to have to see me cry all over again, poor guy.  The actor, Paul,  is perfect for the role and is very familiar with the material.  It really should be wonderful.  I have a much better feeling about how this will go.  I've also let go of the idea that I need to end the scene in the elevator.  Since when do I care if it's exactly like the movie?  Um, I shot a scene that was supposed to be on a putt putt course in an art gallery for Pete's sake!  Clearly, I'm not afraid of artistic and creative license.  So, we'll be in a beautiful lobby of a "NYC apartment building" and we'll shoot it in no time.  Yep, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!
