MIA Director
April 9, 2008 by P. Boom Boom
One of the funniest things that happened while I was with the crew in London was when the director decided to go shopping after the shoot ended early one day. He went with our Hairdresser and the sound man, both of whom eventually got tired and headed back to the hotel.
Five hours later there’s still no sign of the director and everybody from production starts freaking out looking for him on every major street and neighboring Borough. The man spoke no English whatsoever and had no idea how to get back to the hotel as (come to find out) he had neither his bag, with the address taped into it, nor his cell phone on him. We looked for him for 4 hours until someone called and let us know he was back at the hotel.
Till today, I have no idea how the man made it back (12:30 in the morning) having been lost for 6 hours in a place like London.
This is one of my worst nightmares… I would have ended up in “white slavery”.
