I am proud to say that I was one of the cast. I have never looked for my name in the credits. Today I did and I’m not recognized. Yes it is a long time ago but that is why I would like to have that memory.
I was the drag queen prostitute wearing the two-piece see-through leopard outfit with very long dark brown hair [all mine]. The seen is towards the end as he is walking on the street at night and is harassed by a bunch of drag queen prostitutes. You see me for 15 seconds I’m walking talking to John[David Arquette] and it's over. Short but sweet. I am disappointed. My name is Christopher Trujillo and I was one of the cast:{

Hey! You know what gets me mad? When people are not recognized, you can do something: you know where it says: Contribute to This Page -> Create a character page for and then you can put how your character was called: "drag queen prostitute in leopard" or wherever you want to call it, and you can add it, I did it once with a film noir that didn't have an actor who was in there. You deserve to be recognized, don't matter how small the role is, and is never too late!

I forgot something: then you're going to see this page: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116714/fullcredits#cast and then you go to bottom of the page to Edit page, then you'll see Cast and Crew > Cast and here you select Add one credit, you'll go to the bottom of the page and then press continue, so you'll fin Action Name Character Attribute, you can put there your name and the character, ummm, I forgot to tell you, have you done other movies or short films, because there's a part (after this) when you need to select which actor are you, so in case you don't have a page you'll see at the end of the list: This is the first credit in this section for 'Trujillo, Christopher', this is a different person not currently listed - create 'Trujillo, Christopher (II)'. Have a nice day! (I'm so *beep* sick of Hollywood not recognizing people in small roles, and sometimes not even small roles, for example Why in the hell John Dall doesn't have a picture of himself)

Hi, I just saw the movie the other night, I mean, I saw it for the tenth time 'cause the movie is wonderful, it's so deep and truthful. You are right to be proud to have been in it. Why don't you tell something more about it? Like what happened during the shooting? I would be very interesting.
