Doc indeed
bmcgee777 Do you feel you have been type cast because of TOD.
dang no

Doc but what if that wasn't a moment you esp feel great about? and it's STILL out there I think that would be difficult to deal with the permanence of it every day is different for most of us in our jobs. what happened yesterday becomes a memory …sorry, just musing here
bmcgee777 Would have a problem playing an evil person?
debbye01 I can't imagine how it is to see yourself in a movie for the first time
dang I still have a hard time watching myself just think I suck

dang the most difficult thing about acting is the variables that you have no control over which are many
Doc the story as filmed is often not the end product after editing, no?
dang right you are doc

debbye01> I guess everyone probably thinks that way when they are actor/actress.. with some exceptions
Doc> Is that why so many actors go into directing and producing? so they have control over the outcome:
