let's hear it for the boy! he is a legend. he fixed my laptop! so i am no longer in the pits of despair as i was yesterday. i swear, he is like my own personal super-hero. thanks marky!
last night, mondo thingo had bollywood movies as its 'thingo of the week'. here's an excerpt from the show that had me cheering on the couch. anupam sharma is a bollywood film maker and casting agent, and daniel prypchan is a venezuelan actior. enjoy!
ANUPAM SHARMA: So, you said on the phone you want to go to Bollywood?
DANIEL PRYPCHAN: Yes!
ANUPAM SHARMA: What do you want to be in Bollywood?
DANIEL PRYPCHAN: I would love to be a lead or part of a surreal film, like a god or something.
ANUPAM SHARMA: Straight to the top.
DANIEL PRYPCHAN: Yes. That's a dream.
ANUPAM SHARMA: I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the chances of you becoming a lead actor in India are pretty much zero. You don't look Indian. Your hair is certainly not Indian. You don't have a father who's a producer or a star in India. So that takes you pretty much to the end of this long international queue. But like everything in India, there is hope. You could try to be the token mafia evil person from abroad. Or you could try out at song-and-dance sequences.
