In the 1980s this was a very real thing for me. I was engaged to a VP of a film company who dealt in foreign distribution he was the money man. The one who got the budget for a movie.as I got to know him I realize that I was just his little trophy we have been together a little over a year. I think he was impressed with the fact that I saw him as a man not a star or something more. I was never one of those fans who went after the stars.. Although I learned a lot about writing screenplays, reading Scripps and the business All of the lavish parties All that glitters is not gold. I remember a young Tom Hanks The movie bachelor party He was an unknown then. always a party at the end of the day, basically when you watch the dailies of what was shot that day. I knew what everybody’s salary on that film. . It was part of the budget . Its star gets paid based on their rating. For example, if you’re a blockbuster, you have an A rating . This was a low budget movie. This guy came up and said if I sleep with him, he’ll make me a star I laughed. He was barely more than an extra. I said you be nice to me I might be your boss one day. Then I walked away. That’s when I realized I was not going to be anybody’s arm candy. I gave;back his ring and kissed him. Goodbye. I met him years later he still wanted to continue a relationship I had moved on, but we were friends. The road to the middle is full of good intention
