Where to begin...

First off, I've gotta say that I'm the most exhausted that I've ever been in my life. We're all running on fumes here at 'Bearclaw', as we make that mad dash to the finish line (we're about five days away from wrapping).

Which means that more folks are starting to disappear. Today we lost two of them: Salma and Alanis.

Yes - Alanis is in the movie (though what part she's playing, wild horses couldn't drag out of me).

Two very different actresses; two very different performances. One very depressed director.

Salma was an anthrapomorphic sonic boom on set - a presence that always invigorated. When they said big things come in small packages (whoever said it first), they were talking about the mujer herself (hopefully, 'mujer' still means 'woman'... my Spanish is mucho rusty). Hers is a breakthrough performance, marking new terrain for the little Latina. A loooooooong time ago, Robert Rodriguez and I were talking about Salma being cast in the flick, and he said she had a knack for comedy that hadn't been explored yet.

Call me Magellan.

And as for my favorite Canadian/Human on the planet...

Well, how can I put this diplomatically...

Fuck anyone that had the temerity to diss her on this board. She turned in one of the best peformances in the flick - not an easy feat, that, considering the high calibre of work turned in by everyone. And in addition to her thesping skills, she's about the kindest, most pure soul I've ever met (qualities that always come in handy on a movie set - especially one that's as ready to cash it in as this one). She'll be missed by not many - but rather ALL (especially yours truly).

And lastly, last week, me and Mewes performed 'the song' in the strip club. I was the most terrified I've ever felt, having to get up and sing - so much so that I demanded a closed-set (only six folks, two cameras, me and Mewes). But when all was said and done, to be really honest here, the scene was hillarious. It represents a whole new side to Silent Bob.
