an open letter...

dear producers and casting directors of harry potter and the half-blood prince,

i saw that you're holding a casting call for the role of lavender brown (aka, ron weasley's first girlfriend). however, i noticed that there is a request that the girls be between the ages of 15-18. may i remind you of a little thing called "discrimination"? i don't know how it works in the UK, but here in the states, we frown upon that crap. and may i remind you that it's called acting? i mean, some of america's biggest tv shows have had 30 and 40 year olds playing teenagers (90210 ring a bell?). i'm not even 27 yet, so i can most definitely look like an 18 year old.

also, i realize there aren't many (if any) hispanic brits that exist, but why not start with the role of lavender brown. would it help if i got jk rowling to sign off on it?

what do i have to do here to get my big break? oh also, if you could fly me out to london so that i can attend said casting call at the earls court exhibition center, that would be most helpful. and accomodations at the ritz-carlton would be nice.

cheers,
i heart jim halpert
