STS Ch-97
“So, what do you think, huh?” I asked with a raised eyebrow, leaning forward eagerly in my first-class airplane seat. Robert Zemeckis, who sat beside me, sighed, took off his glasses, and rubbed his eyes thoughtfully. After a few moments, he put his glasses back on and looked me directly in the eye. “I’ll be blunt with you, Noah,” he began slowly. “I think you’d be good in this role.” “But?” I prompted, because I could see it coming from a mile away. “But casting you in…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

It was always thrilling to watch how the different elements of filmmaking came together, each one resonating with the other to create a perfect scene. The set decorators, costume and makeup teams, lighting technicians, sound designers, and cinematographers, all of them played a vital role. When those efforts are combined with a strong story, sharp direction, and solid performances, the result could either make or break a film. The job of a director was truly demanding. Before stepping into the film…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

“Okay, where do you want to go?” I asked, my hands resting on the wheels of the Porsche 928 as I drove at a relatively slow speed for practical reasons. “I don’t know, Josh. I haven’t given it a lot of thought,” Daryl said from the passenger seat before turning around at the sound of a honk. “Oh, shit! Here he comes,” she whispered exasperatedly. “Here who comes?” asked Ron from behind me, turning to look out the back window. “My manager,” Daryl replied casually, as if…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

A woman I knew intimately. A woman who’d shaken my world to the core, first privately in Greece, then publicly when our scandal surfaced in tabloids around the world. Acacia Zervas. And judging by her expression, she seemed to be equally surprised by my presence here, if not more. “Mr. Deray,” Jennifer spoke up before the silence could get any more awkward. “We’re so pleased to meet you. I’m Jennifer Jason Leigh, and this is my co-star, Noah Hunter.” “The pleasure’s all mine,…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

As the film continues, more revelations are made about Patrick. He has a lot of friends who seem ready to support him in his time of grief, including two very hot girls. “Hey, Uncle Lee,” Patrick said hesitantly as he walked into his uncle’s room. “Is it okay if Sylvie sleeps over? Dad always let her.” “Then why are you asking me?” Lee asked in confusion. Patrick just smiled and was about to leave when he remembered something. “Oh, and her parents think she stays downstairs in the…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

As I walked out of the audition room, I noticed that everyone else had left, leaving just the sexy redhead receptionist behind, the same one who was currently avoiding looking at me. “Hey, Paige!” I greeted her, stopping in front of her desk. When she didn’t even look up, I added, “Still mad at me, huh? Well, I just wanted to tell you that I lost the role, so that I won’t be coming here anymore.” That did the trick of shocking her enough that she forgot she was mad at me. “What do…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

“If markets are supposed to aggregate information, then a lot of what we call market failure looks more like an information failure. The price is wrong because the knowledge behind it is incomplete.” I finished answering the question my economics professor had posed to the class, one that no one else had managed to satisfy him with. I wasn’t entirely sure this was the response he’d been fishing for, but I knew one thing for certain. Everything I’d said was factually correct. “Perfect!”…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

I woke up after what felt like a very long, deep sleep. Yesterday’s run-in with a future superstar had left me reeling. Would he even become a superstar now that I had taken for myself? Even though I was exhausted, my brain was working overtime, thinking about Tom Cruise and the implications of taking one of his iconic roles. Should I feel some sort of guilt for taking the role away from him? I didn’t. Every film I’d done until now, whether it was or , had originally gone to someone else. By…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

After what felt like months, but was only days, I was finally back in the place I truly called home, free of any major worries pressing down on me. Not the one owned by my father, but the one where I’ve always felt I belonged: water. Thanks to Jordan, most of my financial worries had been washed away. I wasn’t suddenly rich, but not having to worry about rent and utilities went a long way in helping me breathe a little easier. And what better way for a son of Poseidon to unwind than to dive in…- 278.0 K • Ongoing

The moment I saw her, I knew who she was. She was a future Oscar winner and one of the greatest British actresses of her generation. Not to mention a brilliant writer and a very funny comedienne. Emma Thompson. “I’m so sorry for being late,” she apologized. “I mixed up the timing for this audition with another one.” “Unfortunately for you, we’re done here for today,” John said sternly. “You can come back tomorrow...” “John,” I interrupted before he could finish,…- 278.0 K • Ongoing
