bt Atticus

I looked up the guy who's playing Patroclus, 'cause I'm kinda curious whether they the movie will address the text's clear implication of uttlove-bay between Patroclus and Achilles. The actor is a total unknown who inspired the following exchange on the IMDB message boards:

garrett in my opinion is not that great because i had photo journalism with him 1st semester of senior year and he acted like i didnt exsist. i was nothing but nice to him too. i could say something to him and hed look at me, so i knew he was hearing me, and he would walk away. hes egotistical and he is not that great.

On the plus side, he was in ComedySportz and once stuffed a wooden mallet down his pants, proving he will go the extra mile to please a fan. On the minus side, he purported to learn Photojournalism but failed to notice the physical presence of a classmate, a key failing for an aspiring photojournalist.

Verdict: mixed.

reminds me of what my daughter and her friend Lauren say about tommy the 9th grade point guard on their e-journal page. 'cept no mallet talk. don't even matter. he can still take it to the hoop.
