Quotes
ADD QUOTES-
J.P. Pitoc (About his appearance in the independent movie "Trick" where he portrayed a gay dancer): Well, Mark's gay, I'm straight. Mark's 15 pounds heavier than I am now -- I was beefed up for the role. Mark had short hair, in that silly cut that Jim Fall made me wear. He's much more assertive in social situations... sometimes. he goes ahead and says to Gabriel, 'Do you live around here?' whereas I would never have had the balls to say that to someone I had just met. I think we all wish we could just be that forward sometimes.

J.P. Pitoc: An actor doesn't really make that decision of his own accord. I've been acting, or trying to, since I was 8 or 10 years-old, always in the theater. I've got a great education and year of experience under my belt and the I just happened to be in the right place at the tight time when Jim Fall approached me with a little screen play entitled "trick" (formally "gay boy").
