The House of God

I was an under 5 in this film. I went to see the casting director at a nearby hotel by my workplace on my lunch break. She said I would be perfect as a crash cart nurse. My boss gave me 5 days off to work the film.

I had to rush down the hallway with a car filled with medical stuff. On breaks, Tim Matheson hung out with the extras in an empty room. He was just so incredibly kind and answered all our questions about his film career up to that point. Also George Coe and I did a couple of scenes. We had to 'silent' talk while looking at clipboard charts. He said I was a natural. I told him I did summer stock and the Stan method. Bess Armstrong was kind and funny. It was exciting to meet the other actors. Who knew that I was meeting the future Kramer from Seinfeld??? The other thing I remember so well was the famous craft services. The food spread was off the charts. When I finally saw the film so many years later on an obscure TV Channel, I realized I wound up on the cutting room floor. It was a fun experience, one I'll never forget. Oh, to be in my 20s again!!!
