Thanks for writing, Sarah! I am happy to tell you that Jim Sturgess is every bit as nice and smart and funny as he appears and then some. He promised to try to let me interview him again when he has another movie in release. I can't wait!

You brightened up my day, too. Please come back again and write more comments any time!

Hi, are you the person who interviewed him? That is awesome! I loved this interview. The moment I saw it, I put it up on my Facebook group for him as the first video concerning his movie 21. Jim is so cool and a thousand times worth supporting. I always felt that his worth and good qualities run deep. And according to your words, it seems I was right. I will definitely be a watcher of his career. Can't wait for "Man on The Run" and "Heartless" in particular. :D

I loved the interviews! Thank you for providing such awesome inside info on everyone everywhere! Do you have any suggestions as to who an aspiring actress should go to? I'm helpless at the moment!

Thanks, Ellie

Thanks for writing! I cannot improve on the advice Alec Baldwin gave in his wonderful interview on the television show "Inside the Actor's Studio" (if you have not seen that entire series, it should be high on your list). He said that when people ask him that question he tells them to study acting and especially to act in any venue they can -- community theater, workshops, local productions of all kinds. And then, when they ask him how to get an agent and audition for movies, he says, "Oh, you want to be a movie star! I have no advice on that; too much depends on luck. But if what you want is to be an actor, the great thing is that there are many opportunities and if acting is what you love, those opportunities will give you everything you are looking for."
