“Ain’t Got Nothin’ on Me”
I may be wrong about this one, and many will say I am, but looking at film posters around the city the other day, I had this overwhelming sensation that the difference between me and the many stars whose names were written across the top in block letters was negligible. I don’t mean the obvious – they have more money, are more famous, and so on – I mean that their ability to do what they do is not infinitely higher than mine, but that the difference lies in a few intangibles.
Please don’t misunderstand. These guys, and gals, have real talent, and great charisma, and an uncanny ability to navigate the waters. I’m just not sure they’re doing anything I can’t, and it’s been a long time since I felt that with such conviction.
Perhaps it’s the heat…
For all you know, they may be looking at their names up there and thinking the very same thing.
