fascinating when Hollywoodmillionaires try to be ordinary folks


for me that spoils movies like this,
when you know that as soon as the movie is done they go home to their castle like mansion in Hollywood. and sleep with brad pitt which she dated during this time.

Yes it is called acting,people pretend to be people they are not for money,William Shatner never really went into space you know.

Jennifer Aniston may or may not be a great actress and really rich and not know what it is to work a crap job but that is the way the world works.

Aniston was actually married to Brad Pitt by this time. They wed in 2000.

They were not born with their millions, they earned them with their acting. And here she was doing just that, acting.

Jennifer had a distinct advantage over those who had to work their way up in this industry. She already had family connections, which made it much easier for her to become successful. Her father is a well known soap actor and her godfather was Telly Savalas. This is true for probably 70 or 80% of actors today. Nearly all of them have or had a relative working in the business.

Jake Gyllenhaal's parents are also in the business, and he and his sister Maggie have both benefited from nepotism.

I actually liked Jennifer Aniston in this. Loved JG and Zoe. I'm an extraordinary person but I felt they portrayed their parts well. I could sympathize especially with the phrase "put upon" I don't know why but it always haunts me.

So , who should be in the movies we watch? A bank teller or electician? You're jealous of people with more than you so maybe you need to either make a lot of money or stop watching movies.
