Resumen:
Brushing the Tip of Fame.In the same year Toni Collette won an AFI Best Actress award for Muriel's Wedding, Nicholas Hope won the Best Actor award for a very different film, Bad Boy Bubbly. The latter evaded blockbuster status and became a cult hit. So did its star. While Toni was jetting off to Hollywood to co-star in The Sixth Sense, Nicholas was heading off to a small town in the Arctic Circle to make a film about corruption in the cod-fishing industry. But he wasn't bitter. Honestly. And while fame always seems tantalizingly near, being almost famous has its perks. After all, it takes the boy from Whyalla all over the world, from the glitz and glamour of the Venice Film Festival as Best Actor nominee to New York, London, Norway and Lightning Ridge. Along the way, he falls madly in love and meets more bizarre people, famous and otherwise, than any former bank clerk from the bush could ever had daydreamed about. |
