Ever wonder how glamorous it would be to ditch your cushy 9-to-5 and follow your dream of becoming a star? Well, wonder no more. Here's a real taste of what the world has to offer the struggling performer. So, go grab a free soda from the office kitchen, sit back in your rolly chair, and laugh at all us poor fools out there without 401Ks or health insurance - who actually (sometimes) consider auditioning for these crazy projects.

Italy?! Oh, The Horror!!!
'THE SEER'
Nuragic Films is casting The Seer, an independent horror/thriller feature film. Luigi XXXXX, dir.; Wendi XXXXX, casting dir. Shooting in June in Sardinia, Italy. Seeking—Paolo: 30s, Italian-looking, Italian accent a plus but not necessary, handsome, detective type, must be available in June, LEAD; Agata & Ada: females, 18-28, tall, slim, sexy, beautiful, twins and/or sisters strongly encouraged to apply, partial nudity required, must be available for two to three weeks in mid-June; Giusti: 50s, male, historian, intellectual type, must be available for one week in June. Send pix & résumés ASAP to OTSP, Attn: Wendi, XXXXX., 4th fl., NYC 10017; or email XXXXX. No pay, but transportation to and from Sardinia and on the Island will be provided, along with meals and accommodations.
If you're independently wealthy and can afford to spend three weeks without pay, after buying airfare to Italy (they just said travel to the island was provided, but not from where. I'm assuming just from the main land since, if they had enough dough to buy my international flight, then I feel they could at least give me a per diem), and would rather spend that time "working" as you are "partially nude" with your sister, or someone similar... then I say got for it. Go. For. It.
