This is my second piece of exciting news.
On Thursday night / Friday morning, I met Natalie Portman.
Well, I didn’t exactly talk to her and she probably didn’t notice me at all, but….
I was an extra in a film that she’s directing and starring in. I got into it through my folk dancing group. They said they wanted dancers, but in the end there were too many people to be able to dance properly.
We were there – outdoors – from 5 pm to 5 am (except while we were eating). I had to wear a thin skirt, tights and open shoes, and I was freezing. We took part in two scenes, which were filmed several times.
It was quite an experience, although not one I’d like go through very often!

WOW!! Very cool. It sounds like it was very interesting.
Oh yes!
Good for you. I think doing anything like that must require an enormous amount of patience! (Two of my nephews have been involved in films and I heard a lot about how “boring” it was when they weren’t doing something.)
It wasn’t boring because we chatted in between filming. But it was FREEZING!
Wow! I always think it would be exciting being in a film but I bet there is a lot of waiting around as well. Still, I bet it was a great experience!
It really wasn’t the waiting. Just the cold. And yes, a great experience!
