Hollywood

[Drunk Monk]

Taking Greg's most excellent advice, I flew into BUR from SJC. TC booked me on SW and I had a full row to myself both ways. Man, I haven't experienced that in like a decade. That's the way to fly. Greg, as always, expertly navigated the labyrinthine highways of L.A. and we enjoyed a fine lunch at CA Pizza Kitchen. Then it was over to Lynch Manor where we both worked a little prior to leaving for the screener and the very Hollywood London just off Sunset. We got there right on time, which in Hollywood-ese means too early to be fashionable. We hung out on some fuzzy chairs after being invited by a woman who turned out to be the wife of one of the exec producers. There was free popcorn and drinks, but I only took a Perrier, because that's what stars do, right? I don't know. There was a little area to shoot photos and Greg busied himself to the task, chumming up to the AMC photographer, which was a smart move. I ran into Stephen Fung, the fight choreographer, and someone who's films I've reviewed here (see <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://brotherhoodofdoom.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2704">viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2704</a><!-- l -->, <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://brotherhoodofdoom.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2565">viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2565</a><!-- l -->, <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://brotherhoodofdoom.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2555&p=15037">viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2555&p=15037</a><!-- l -->). He blew me off. But he was on a mission so I let it go and figured I'd try again later...
