I once joined a (normal!!!!) movie, for kids and we were all dressed up, in costumes, wigs, facepaint, etc. All of our own time, money and work. Thing is, the couple that paid for the whole thing (the main characters), wanted to (obviously) be on screen most of the time. So whereas I had been worrying about every single detail of my costume, the lunch I'd brought with me and whether or not it'd ruin my lipstick and was constantly checking my teeth and make up... the other two just spontaniously acted some parts, sat down, had food, filmed again. And precisely 8,5 hours after arriving at the location and not doing ánything (and not getting paid, this was supposed to be an 'opportunity' for us) I was told; 'Oh, bytheway, Widdekuu91...we need someone to stand in the back of the shot. No need to re-do that lipstick, you'll be blurry, you're in the background." Then a cameraman said; 'Bytheway, you can be in the foreground in the next scéne." And it turns out that meant sitting véééry still and crouching down in a field for 25 minutes untill the person crouching next to me, couldn't bear the musclepains any longer and fell on his knees and ruined his costume. I asked; 'This'll be in the foreground, right?" and he said; 'Yeah, but blurry, we needed a shot of the castle with two people hiding out of sight, so your shoulder is on it."

Life in general. I’ve never seen hard work pay off once not even slightly. But it doesn’t stop the rich and the famous, all who have gotten there through connections, from preaching positivity and false hope, encouraging people to continue slaving their life away for a retirement fund they’ll never see or be too weak to take advantage of by the time they do. Dedication means nothing. Talent, skill, passion, love, all nothing. The privileged wouldn’t be as annoying as they are if they were at least honest about it. But I digress.

Wow what a weird prequel for La La Land

[@greenspan11111]

Sorry but Emma Stone's Oscar Win was a huge mistake, it was just because of some Hollywood Snowflakes felt depressed in Trump Era and La La Land provided some sort of escapism, not based on any kind of artistic merit because she's a terrible actress, in fact she can't even act in any way! ..

I love how much Emma Stone commits to a a dramatic role in this silly sketch. She is basically her character.

[@dennycranium]

She played an amplified version of how some actors are in real life.

It's not silly, it's actually satire.

Yeah, even in a parody, she's an excellent actress.
