LEATHERHEADS movie premiere, as viewed from an Extra
My wife, Linda and I went to one of the two Premier showings for movie Extras in Greenville, SC last night, and I did see myself in it (happily - after working 40hrs in 3 days last year). At 20 minutes or so into the movie there is a 2-3 second view of me walking out of the Historical Poinsett Hotel that Clooney has quickly pulled-up to on his motorcycle w/sidecar. Sometimes during the movie the images pass by rather quickly, but in other parts - the romantic ones in particular, the scenes are very close-up with Clooney and Renee Zellweger, where every word and facial expression have a lot of meaning, and are fun to interpret. The newbie to being in a lead role, Krasinski, does a great job in the way he conveys his confidence, his role as a football star, and as a war hero. Clooney, well need I say more? Having to play rough football with the younger guys and work on strategies for winning each game, he also shows his ability to work on a strategy to attempt to win-over Renee, the newspaper reporter. It was tough for “Dodge” to try to gain affection from the much younger “Lexie”, because he was competing over her against the war-hero and College superstar “Carter”. Renee was excellent in playing her role as kind of a sassy, but very attractive newspaper reporter starting to cover football games. She hung in there with the guys despite the occasional jokes directed at her during those games.
