On the set of : "FOREST 2, the REVENGE".
Imagine how exited we were when we got a call last week end from the Mojo Casting Agency about this:

They wanted us to have big parts in the sequel to the famous film "Forest Gump", called "Forest 2, the revenge".

We couldn't wait to work with our friend Tom Hanks again. ( We did "The Hefner principal" with him earlier). But it was not to be. A totally new team is doing the sequel. And the studio wanted an action film this time around. So they asked the German guy from "Terminator".

It turned out he was too expensive (who would have thought...), so they took a look alike named Dieter Grossmann.
Although I am not, myself, a film producer. I could see that Mr.Grossmann would have some problems with the part.

First, he doesn't speak a word of English. In the final film, his voice will be dubbed by Antonio Banderas.

Second, he is only 5 feet 4 inches tall. And he's supposed to kick everybody's ass...

Second again, he's a drunk. And a very angry one at that...

That evening, he was drunk enough to let me have my picture taken with him.
Just like in the 1st film. The forest character ends up with the president. Except in this one, he ends up kicking his ass in a wrestling match.

They also put me in the scene with the president. Although I don't get to beat him up... I tried a bit of subtle acting there, but the director was pretty pissed when he saw it, and said he could use it.

That guy's gonna be singing a different tune next year, when my roommate Phil Schwartzetti and I become the number one in the world at the box office...

In the new film, Forest has a Mom who works as a sexy nurse in a mental institution. Lucie Airdrome, the producer's steady girlfriend, landed the part. She's pretty good. Considering she was selling cars on Van Nuys Blvd. last week.

We actually had the wrap party at our favorite hang out: the Butt Bar in Van Nuys.

My roommate Phil was flirting with Lucie all week. And after a few beers, he got enough courage to make a move. I am glad I took this picture of "his move". He claims that "move" always gets the girl to notice him.

But the other guy in the picture, is Lucie's boyfriend, and our producer. He also notice "the move". And he didn't like it at all.

But the other guy in the picture, is the
The producer guy made a call right away. We found out later, that he called the cops to tell them that Phil was selling drugs, waiving a gun while claiming to have had sex with a cop's mother.

It wasn't true, of course. But the 3 police cars were there in about 40 seconds.

I quickly took this shot of my roommate as he was pushed into the trunk of one of the cars... .
