Today I had to work, on a precious weekend. (And right now they are.)
Of course said work involved going to a premiere of Dean Spanley, sitting behind Sam Neill (Jurassic Park! < — betraying plebian taste), and then shaking his hand, along with Toa Fraser’s. I know, it sucks, but someone has to do it. Neill is really cute in person.
Tomorrow I do my very first press junket interview, with Jeremy Northam (same film; it is the only one I’m covering). Last week I got to interview Lousia McCormack about The Catch. Less name recognition and glory but I love interviewing writers about books. I come to film as a thoughtful fan but with books I know what I’m talking about.
Woe is me. Really. Ha ha.
