January 2006, Los Angeles, CA, USAIt had been so long since I had won a major award that I had almost forgotten the feeling of winning anything substantial. My last award worth talking about was a Tony, and that was nearly four years ago. I can't really describe the feeling in words, but I felt like I was on top of the world. While the Golden Globes don't guarantee an Oscar win, they certainly mean that I've become a serious contender for the award now."Troy to Earth!" Mum called out to me. "Come on, son,…- 961.0 K • Ongoing

The sun hung lazily in the sky, casting a golden glow over the slightly wet sand that stretched seemingly endlessly before us. The waves lapped gently at the shore, creating a soothing rhythm that was a world away from the chaos of film sets and bustling cities. I took a deep breath, inhaling the salty sea air, and felt a wave of contentment wash over me. The sunshine was perfect for me. Too bad my contract forbade me from sunbathing while the films were in production. This was heaven.I can't believe I…- 961.0 K • Ongoing

I blame my teenage hormones for agreeing to Emily’s request. Any sane person would tell me that this is a very bad idea. Kissing someone for a scene is one thing, but doing it for ‘practice’ while all alone was unnecessary and almost as bad as cheating. I knew that very well. Still, I agreed to Emily’s request for reasons that I couldn’t fathom.But it wasn’t meant to be. As if some divine power was watching over me, I got a call from Emma right at the moment when Emily was about to kiss…- 961.0 K • Ongoing

Everyone was gathered around Alan Arkin, who was lying flat on the floor with his eyes closed. Toni Collette was hovering over him.As soon as I crouched beside her, she turned to me in panic. "We've called 9-1-1, but they'll take some time to get here. Do you know CPR?"I didn't. I opened my mouth to say so, but then I noticed something…- 961.0 K • Ongoing

I felt ecstatic. Seeing the people around me clapping as if their lives depended on it was amazing. I know most people clap more enthusiastically at premieres because of the cast and crew's presence, but it still felt wonderful knowing that the film we had spent so much time perfecting had resonated with viewers. I turned towards the movie's writer, Evan Spader, who looked close to tears. I could understand that sentiment. Your first movie is always special. I still remember attending that first…- 961.0 K • Ongoing
