W: Hi, I’d like to tell you an interesting experience. It happened two years ago. A man named Charles Fagin from a Hollywood film studio came to me and said my house looked perfect for a film he was working on. He asked me if I’d be interested in renting it out for a few weeks.

The money he offered was attractive, but there was one more thing. They’d dig up my lovely garden. I was a little hesitant. But finally I agreed.

Fagin told me they’d paint some rooms, but he promised they’d repaint them after the shoot, and they’d fix anything they damaged. Preparation on the house began a month before the film shoot. The crew painted the living room grey. They brought in a larger sofa and dug holes in the ceiling for the lights.

For the film shoot, which took place over four days, I agreed to be out of my house, staying with my relatives. Fortunately for me, the shoot went well. The scenic painters’ attempt at repainting my living room before they left were so poor that I ended up painting it again myself.
