THE ROCK
Read more about my work on this movie....
My first big studio action film with Cage. Very intimidated, but with butterflies of excitement. Immediately beginning work on "The Rock" of Alcatraz and staying with a friend, and yes, taking a bus to the docks before boarding the cargo boat to the island at 5am. All this, and I was somehow forgotten for the big pay day on Cage's first action film. I again had to put myself up. The city was cold and damp, as San Francisco is known for, and I felt it in my bones. Geographically a complex film to work on with base camp at the foot of Alcatraz and sets throughout "The Rock", and yes, testosterone male dominated cast and crew of which I was not. The second half was filmed on stage in Las Angeles with brilliant sets like you only see in the movies. It was worth getting the flue 8 time along with the diarrhea and being completely burnt out on this all American action classic flick. As Nic sets his sights for more action films to come, not as a sell out, but for character diversification.
