So I was...Ugh, just wrote a comment that got eaten. So I was googling myself and came across this. If my old post turns up, pls delete this one, mmmkay?<br /><br />So I'm Cherub, from the movie, and I was literally written into the movie the NIGHT BEFORE! I had gotten the director's email address from a Little Person webboard where he was defending his film. I had just discovered that I "counted" as a dwarf because of my height, and wrote him an email saying "I'm short, I'm cute, and I have a huge ass!" I guess that's all it took! He told me to drive down to L.A. that night, which I did. The producers were very unhappy at this last minute addition to the cast, and even after we were all done shooting, they fought to not let me get my Sag vouchers that I totally earned... even though they overdubbed my voice with that of Satan's grandmother!<br /><br />There was a lot of stress on the set. Mr Bright is obviously very wild and weird and creative, and it felt like the producers wanted some sort of Lifetime Channel movie. So that is my opinion on why the film doesn't really "work". The producers were fucking with him every chance they got!<br /><br />It was a really fun experience, though, and I would love to work with Matthew in the future - hell, I would love to just see him do a new movie that is his vision, regardless of my involvement or not!<br /><br />OH! one last thing! That hair? On my head? I did it myself. Awesome, right? RIGHT? Oh and Matthew even gave up his trailer for me, because there were none available since I was such a last minute addition.<br /><br />Sorry so long, and I hope this sheds a bit of light onto the making of that movie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
