Tough Climb
Ida from Iowa quickly learned that in spite of flashy good looks and long, elegant legs, the climb to the top in Hollywood was still a tough climb . . .
Transformers
Huey had come to Los Angeles to try for a part in one of the Transformer movie series, or maybe a spin-off of one of the Godzilla flicks, and had counted on perhaps being a parking valet to pay the bills while waiting for his big break. For some reason, the rich guys and the cool chicks didn’t seem to want him driving their cars, even just to the parking lot. They kept muttering something about Betelgeuse on the seats and steering wheel . . .
Short Guy
Dino had shipped his resume and photo to several of the Hollywood studios, trying for the next new apocalyptic/monster movie, offering himself to play the monster. When he went to the studios to try out for the part, the director said, “You’re awfully small.” Dino couldn’t help himself and blurted out, “So is Tom Cruise!”
The Bride of Chucky
Even though he was a newcomer to Hollywood, Thom had been offered the lead in a screen adaptation of Tom Clancy’s iconic novel “The Cardinal Of The Kremlin,” but with his naturally dark face, he had hoped to a score a lead in “The Return Of The Bride Of Chucky. . . “
Three Stooges
When Harry, Curly, and Joe heard there was going to be a new Three Stooges movie made, they immediately went to Hollywood to try our for the lead roles. They were sad when they heard that one of the Stooges had to be short with almost no hair; one Stooge tall, big, and stupid, and the third chunky with a soup-bowl haircut and a nasty temper–and no, the make-up department couldn’t fix that . . . .
