So today Gene is filming his big scene on "Lost". He went for wardrobe fitting the other day - they are altering a tux for him and providing the other things he needs to wear - including shoes!
They called him yesterday to tell him if he had a BMW or Mercedes that he could drive for another scene they could give him an extra $35. Too bad all we got is economy and family cars.
One funny thing - on Wednesday he went snorkeling out along the reef about 1 mile off of Bellows and slammed his face into the coral. Not pretty - his nose has a big gash and his forehead has a huge cut in it that looks like the outline of seagull wings. He thought that might put an end to his film career - but I told him they got something called MAKE-UP that should take care of it just fine. I'll try and sneak a picture of the walking wounded.
One more thing - when he went to be fitted for wardrobe he figured out why they wanted him - the other 3 guys who were also there for wardrobe fittings for today's filming were just like him - old haole men!
