Listening to Whoopi Goldberg's morning show while sitting here on the porch, I was saddened to hear that Glenn Ford passed away yesterday. Not that I'm a Glenn Ford fan or anything, but it got me to thinking about all the folks in Hollywood we view more as icons than real people. Makes you realize that the glitter of Hollywood is really made up of our own near adoration of these folks.
A friend of mine who lives in LA and is "in the business" surprises me with his rather blase' attitude about it. He's been on more than a few shows and has worked with many in-the-moment actors/actresses you'd know. To him, Hollywood is gritty not glitter, and nine-to-five rather than star studded events.
Guess it is all about perception.
