Back to the Grind

Intense Actor (IA) came to the story conference of his own movie intoxicated and in a foul mood. IA kept blabbering that the movie is rubbish. Yet, IA also stressed that he should play the lead role, and not merely a supporting one. In between, he kept ordering alcohol from the waiter. Obviously, he was over-drinking again. The production people respected his presence and let him be. IA even went as far as interrupting and contradicting the director, who was presenting the concept of the movie.

The lead actor was present but did not bother to react because he did not want to risk altercation with a very drunk IA, and ruin the story conference. IA kept cursing until the very end of the meeting. He even cursed his own handler. The wardrobe people had to stretch their patience as IA did not want to cooperate when they were taking his measurements.

Apparently, some things never change. IA is peg for real acting. Viewers have gone through a roller coaster ride with him when IA dealt with his heartbreaks, from failed relationships, deaths of someone close to him, and the hiatus of his career. Typical of alcoholic behavior, IA can be very sweet without alcohol but can be a monster with it.

Was this incident isolated? What drove IA to go back to his habit? Why did he renege on his promise a few months ago? IA is one actor who seems to have never learned from his experience. Although forgiving, the industry people have their limits. If IA loses his career totally, then he would have more reasons for drinking and destroy his life. But then, no one can save IA except himself, right?
