Curtiss Cook Talks about Being Part of "Shutter Island" (Negromancer News Bits and Bites

Actor Curtiss Cook talks to Wilson Morales of AOL Black Voices about working on Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island:

How did you get attached to the film?

Curtiss Cook: I got attached to 'Shutter Island' the way I would think most g-list actors like myself do --- not like Mr. Washington or Mr. Smith get approached. I got the first call to come and audition for the casting. I read the scenes for the camera, heard a very nice thank you and left the office trying to put it out of my mind. I was able to do this because I didn't hear anything from them for a good three months later and that was a call saying that Mr. Scorsese wanted to meet with me. Cloud nine, that's where I was, on cloud nine.
