THROWBACK THURSDAY


The early 1990's in Austin, Texas. A photo taken by SWMBO. Submitted for an Extra (or better) role in motion pictures.

I landed two Extra (no better) parts in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape", with Johnny Depp and Leonardo DiCaprio, and "A Perfect World", with Clint Eastwood, Kevin Costner and Laura Dern.

One day each. But it was fun.

My Oscar role still awaits.

  1. You look like the captain of a ship from the 1800s. It's a great look.

    1. I think it was about $75 plus lunch. (Steak on Eastwood's film!)

    2. That sounds okay when you throw in the steak lunch.

  4. You could be an Irish rover or a member of the Maynard G. Krebs society.

  6. Agreed! Ahoy Mateys! You look like a very mean captain of a very old ship. The kind that makes use of walking the plank.

  7. I hope your trawler brought in a boat-load of North Atlantic Cod.
