Super Hero - Nurse

I hadn't heard of this film when I got booked on it, and apparently they were only in their 2nd day of shooting. My call time was 10am on Tuesday in Hawthorne, which is only about 20 minutes from me. I was actually booked as a patient and was told to bring pajamas, a robe, and slippers. They handed me a hospital gown and as soon as I had changed into it, they changed me into a hospital worker/nurse because someone hadn't shown up. So they gave me lovely pink scrubs to change into. I quickly discovered that the film was a comedy when I worked in the first scene. Jeffrey Tambor was playing a doctor and the scene had him walking through doors in the ER while he was talking to someone (the lead of the film, I believe, a guy that looked 18-20 yo) and the door hits a nurse with a tray, the nurse and the tray go flying, and Jeffry Tambor keeps walking and talking oblivious while we all scramble to see if the nurse was ok. It was a fun scene to be a part of. The nurse was a stunt woman and there was a stunt coordinator as well. Even though it's not that dangerous of a "stunt", films always take this kinda of stuff seriously and there was a large cushioned mat for her to fall onto.
The next scene we filmed, the doctor (Jeffrey Tambor) brought the guy into a hospital room to see his uncle. The uncle turned out to be Leslie Neilsen. It was real cool to see him in person.
The whole crew seemed laid back and had a sense of humor. At some point, someone fell asleep in a chair ... I'm not exactly sure who, on set. So, for fun, everyone started to quietly leave the set. The guy woke up before we could pull it off, but it was pretty funny.
All in all, it was a long day (YAY for OT!) but lots of fun.
