I'm a university student, at least I play one on film

Hey everyone. Sorry I haven't been posting in a while. Been busy/out of town/lazy/etc...

A couple fridays ago, I was involved in the making of the new Da Vinci Code movie, starring Tom Hanks as Robert Langden. I enjoyed reading the book in April, and am very happy that I got a chance to be a part of the movie (Even if I was only an extra).

It was good times. A bunch of my housemates also got parts, so you'll be able to see us all on the big screen. We'll be the tiny fuzzy dots in the background way out of focus.

I didn't get to have a chat with Tom Hanks, but he was very personable with the extras. No, he wasn't fat. I don't think he looked like a Robert Langden, but that's just my opinion.

I got paid quite well for the day, but couldn't go back the next day. I was on my way to Edinburgh. They gave me an offer to come back, and even asked me again. Too bad I already had a train ticket to Edinburgh.

You can see me on film in May.

Cheers

Paul

Sorry. I listened to the book. I have read it in it's entirety however while here. Just wanted to make things simple

In addition, I also have purchased the book Angels and Demons (another book of Dan Brown's that is along similar lines). Haven't been able to read it, as my friends keep stealing it on me. I think Lynda has it atm.

Bought it sometime in June.
