Be A Movie Star
... or at least be a movie extra. You could appear in the movie "The Visiting" -- the same Nicole Kidman film we blogged about last week -- if you head to this casting call on Saturday at One Judiciary Square.
You must be 18 or older to apply. All you need to bring is a pen and a recent color photo of yourself, but you should bring a resume if you have one. The call starts at 10 a.m., and you'd be wise to arrive early. And if you're wondering what to wear, I suggest you dress as normally as you can. Extras are supposed to look like regular folks who can easily blend into the background. Showing up wearing a replica of Kidman's fake nose from "The Hours"? Not such a hot idea.

I was very, very, very unhappy to get up early, drag myself out in the worst rain we have seen in a great while and get there to talk to a security guard who looked at me like I was clueless. Being last minute I went to Kinko's to print out a new resume with the films I have done and to get there and there not actually BE an open call, I was saddened to say the least.
