#Repost @sashaalexander ・・・ I worked with #TomSizemore on a film in 2007 called “The Last Lullaby.” He scared the shit out of me in the first rehearsal by acting out scenes from Black Hawk Down. Screaming & fake shooting at me. He was very intense but also very fragile & he loved eating those horrible pink snowballs all day. He was a germaphobe, was obsessed with smelling good and had a suitcase of his favorite facial products (who knew) We had to shoot a swimming scene and we were waiting and waiting for Tom to come out of his trailer. One of the producers told me he didn’t want to come out because he didn’t feel comfortable he looked good. I thought, seriously, here I am a woman, in a bathing suit, in the middle of the night, freezing my buns off having had a baby not long ago. So I went to his trailer and knocked. He opened the door wearing a robe tightly pulled around him. I said “Tom, what’s going on?” He answered “I look fat.” Inside myself I thought well those snowballs aren’t the healthiest option but I said “I just had a baby, come on, they will fix it, it’s the movies!” I took his hand & we walked to set together. Tom had a lot going on in his life but when we were in a scene, he clicked in & he was nowhere else. A collaberative & supportive scene partner. He loved acting & had a great sense of humor. I hope you take a rest up there, Tom. Tell great stories about all your films, stay smelling good, and if you find my cordless phone can you please return it. Peace. #riptomsizemore https://www.instagram.com/p/CpYL1qzOPV-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
