oh man, this business

[rm]

Between the Craigslist ad looking for the attractive 21-28-y-o with a great body, some acting experience, the desire to finish writing a partially developed script and willing to put up the money to produce it and this article in the SMH, I wonder, what is it I am doing exactly in this business? I mean, other than poking it with sticks.

Hollywood has told Australian actor Diana Glenn she is quirky and offbeat.

She's also been informed she may be unattractive to some.

But she is determined to give Tinseltown a go.

"They think I'm weird," Glenn said in Sydney recently to promote her first feature film Oyster Farmer which opens nationally on June 30.

"They say I look offbeat, a bit quirky, unconventionally attractive, but some people could find me just unattractive.

"That is what I have been told and I have only just started auditioning."

If you go to the photo, I look nothing like her, but you'll see why I'm like, "well, I knew that, but shiiiiiiiiiit."

I've also noticed that Canadian films in particular have more interracial relationships in their casting choices that often have absolutely nothing to do with the plot. It's jsut some random not a big deal thing. That would never happen here.
