Who would you most like to be stuck in an elevator with? Least like?
Without hesitation, MIckey Rourke is the person I'd love to be stuck on the elevator with. This would give me the opportunity to make the famous 30 sec. elevator pitch. Breath deep, calm my nerves and flash a dazzling smile; "Mr. Rourke, I want you to know that despite the fact that the academy chose to give the Oscar to the other guy, you were the real winner. I've seen almost every film you've made and not once have you let the audience down. What you bring to the screen is magical and I'd love for you to read the screenplay I wrote, there's a part in it made for you. It has all the nuances and complexities that Mickey Rourke can bring to life. Will you read it?"
After about 30 seconds of contemplation Mickey says," Sure, I'll give it a read. Contact info? I see it's on the script. Ok, I'll give you a call and let you know what I think." Smiles, handshake and we exit the elevator.
