Re: Dinner and Movies Thursday August 19
Hello Andy,
I spoke to Art last week and mentioned the movie night to him. Apparently Robert Altman used a lot of the Gardena poker players as extras in California Split, and they were paid $30 per day for their services. It seems that one player in particular was a member of SAG (Screen Actors Guild) and was given a speaking part which paid $100 per day. Well Art said that when he saw the movie sure enough there was the player who was in SAG and sure enough he had a speaking part, when the action got to him he said, "Pass"
You know it's always interesting talking to Art, he always seems to have a story or an experience to relate.
Looking forward to seeing you on Thursday.
Jim
