The Julie Taymor film, which has now been titled ACROSS THE UNIVERSE seems to be Velvet Goldmine about the Beatles instead of David Bowie. Before any of you squee, I think that means less gay (despite the fact that Eddie Izzard is apparently in teh thing), but most of yesterday was spent staring up at a lone (and imaginary) singer on a roof while these awesome crane shot was done. That part of the day was awesome. It's rare you get to do anything as background that feels like anything -- not in terms of it being work, but in terms of it having a discernable emotion to it. That said, I was on my feet in horrible shoes for about ten hours in the rain and most people, cast and crew alike, were getting pretty cranky by the end of it. Many many people had had calls well before dawn.

Law and Order today, I'm playing a cafeteria monitor, which is the height of humorous I think. My call isn't until 4, so I am going to work some first.

For those of you following along perhaps less closely, but are still interested, the new Decensus has finally arrived: http://www.livejournal.com/community/descensus_hp/2464.html

No danger of that. What was that old saying, again? "In cyberspace, no one can hear you squee." 8-)
