The Milgram Experiment

"After all, life hasn't much to offer except youth, and I suppose for older people, the love of youth in others."
-F. Scott Fitzgerald

I'm getting on a bus for DC in 8 hours. The bus snakes around midtown for awhile before the Lincoln Tunnel spits it out onto the New jersey Turnpike. I will arrive in Chinatown around 1:30 in the afternoon and have arranged for my usual escort to meet me there. Supposedly I'm going down there to document the struggles of making a low budget film. I am not privy to the details of the budget. When films reach a certain cost, it is impolite to ask. Just like scraping a price tag off a Christmas gift. It is less for the recipient's benefit and more about hiding your own embarrassment if you overpaid. I haven't been on a film set in over a year. If you're not a participant, most sets are about as fun as biting down on a fork. Between the repetition and the slew of obnoxious optimists, I'll probably lose my wood pretty quickly. I'll be on set for the next 2 weeks and I'm going to try and blog a few times about the goings on. Also, 58 pages deep on the new script. It's not a race, but it's nice when it starts to get thick.
