Here's something for the weekend!

If you had the chance of appearing as an extra in any past, present or future film what would be the title, what character would you play and why?

Best / funniest answer wins a carton of Foster's.
(Must be picked up in Australia).

Dave.

Looks like i'll have to win my own prize -

"The Playboy Story"s EXTRA cool,
"TAKE'ing buxom models around the pool ;
Parties, nude scenes, Playboy mansion, California's sunny,
Need no wages - just "Gimme the bunny!"

Next!........

That reminds me of a Woody Allen film when he was explaining to someone a job he used to have in a strip club, helping the girls get changed into costume before each set, and was asked about the money:

Allen "Twenty five dollars a week!"

Man "That's not much!"

Allen "That's all I could afford!"

As an extra I'd like to be the chair Sharon Stone was sitting in at Police HQ in Basic Instinct, and in The Great Escape I would have liked to have been the German who said to Gordon Jackson as he boarded the bus with Richard Attenborough, "Good luck!".

The quote is from What's New, Pussycat. Woody tells Peter O'Toole he's found work in the Crazy Horse Saloon in Paris.

Woody: I help the girls dress and undress. It's 20 francs a week.

O'Toole: Not much.

Woody: It's all I can afford.

The Crazy Horse is regarded as the World's most classiest strip joint.
