How I became an hollywood actor

This is a really unbelievable and amazing story.
So strange that almost seems impossible.

But it is true.
Absolutely.

My mom Adriana died on sept 11, 2008.

About two months after her loss, I found a website: http://myparentswereawesome.tumblr.com where many send old pictures of their parents.

I decided to send this picture, where mom holds me, as a very little child. Along with the picture I left my email address.

In april 2010, that picture was published. And I was very happy because I felt that my mom picture was available on the web, and maybe other people could see her. I did non even write she was dead. It was a sort of private joy for me knowing that "our" picture was online.

I did not even tell the story to anyone.


Months later, I received an email from a lawyer, Ashley Kravitz, working for CBS copyright cleaning.
CBS wanted to use my mom picture in a movie!

The movie is an action packed gangster story: Faster, starring Dwayne Johnson and Billy Bob Thornton


And at 53 minute in the movie, there is my mom, and there is me.



So, this is how I became an hollywood actor in an action movie.



Life is wonderful.
