McCloud

“When I was thirteen years old I was involved in a drama workshop that was being run by one of my idols, an extraordinary, brilliant, two time Academy Award winning actor named Jack Lemmon; and I had to do a scene from a play. I get done with this scene and Jack Lemmon walked up to me, put his hand on my shoulder and he said ‘That was terrific. Now this kid is an actor. You’re an actor’.
I will never forget that somebody I admired who was an adult said just the right words to me at just the right time and changed my life, because in life there’s always somebody who’s just below, just waiting for the chance to be invited up. I suppose our job in life is to not find ourselves living on such high floors that we no longer pay attention to the voices that are coming from just below us.
If one person’s life is moved or changed or shifted because of the work that we try to do, then that’s enough.”
