The Big Day....The Day Of John!
I got caught up on a little bit of sleep last night which is nice.We went to a late movie but no parties or late dinner after that which would have kept me out all night,just straight home to crash.I really needed to be asleep before 2:00am for a change.
Most of yesterday afternoon was spent in Toronto shooting footage for the documentary film project that I have been working on for a long long time now.Its an ongoing project of mine.
It's crazy how many huge movie stars are in Toronto for TIFF right now.I walked beside,yelled out to,looked at from across the street and or got to meet people like Cuba Gooding jr,the dude from The Matrix,Harvey Kitell and Claire Danes just to name a few of them.Trying to convince Phillip Seymore Hoffman to stick around for another week so that he could check out my show on Tv still makes me kinda laugh to myself a little.
With all these big stars walking around you see a few popporatzzi dudes hanging around as well.My old pal Shane Cunningham was with me yesterday to help out with some camera work and after we had rapped up shooting, we went to go grab a hotdog to eat.
While on are way down the street,we both hear the fast action clicking sound of a camera and as I look to my right I see one of these dudes snapping pictures of me.
You know how you always here about stars freak out on these guys and stuff like that.Not me man,it was pretty dam cool.I know that sounds shallow and vain of me but that's never happened to me before.I'm just some schmuck on latenight television in Canada.
Shane yelled out to him and said"you know who this is right".The guy said"ya,he's got a show on Tv"then Shane say's and he's in his first movie which is screening at the festival which then inspired the dude to start snapping off a gabillion more pictures as we walked away.
All the glitz and glamour of the festival can sure make a guy want to be a part of showbiz I tell ya! Good thing I know I'm just some schmuck with a dumb little latenight Tv show.
But hey,that doesn't mean I can't enjoy being a part of the festival for a change right? This the big day!!! The Day Of John!
I'm looking forward to seeing some of you tonight at the screening.I hear that the tickets are all sold out but there are always rush tickets held back and made available for people who show up early and get in line.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone. I'll continue updating my blog as much as I can over the next week while the festival is running.Maybe I will try and post a couple vlogs as well,that might be a fun thing to do.
Later guy's,
JR
