Excerpt from Breaking Into the Movies It new ideas Of every conceivable variety, all c ing for admission. And, on the other hand, there are the men who manage the movies sending out all manner of exhortations, appeals and supplications to just such people to come and work in their studios. They drown each other's voices, the one calling for new talent and new types, the many fora chance to demonstrate that they are just the talent and types that are SO in demand. This economic paradox, this passing in the night of Demand and Supply, has come about through a gen eral misconception of everything concerned with the movies.

Breaking Into The Movies is a humorous true story, of the life of a kid from Inglewood California. Somehow, most likely, just through dumb luck, he made it up the food chain to become a Quasi, world famous Motion Picture Key Grip. No, the common person on the street would not have heard of him. And no, other motion picture personal, don't recognize him on movie sets. Hell, his kids, hardly recognize him! So, how is this some so famous, you ask? He is the author of the "Grip Book!" A.k.a. the Grips Bible, now in it's fifth edition from Taylor-Francis. Why it's even been translated into Korean. (That's really gonna' help all the aspiring grips here in Hollywood!) Here's the kicker, Mike can't spell... or type... nor does he have any command of the English language. None of that has held him back. Actually, not much holds him back. Not even having a half-inch shorter left leg. Courtesy of a motorcycle jumping accident while serving eight years in the Marines. So after, staff sergeant's Uva's medical discharge, he decided to become a Licensed, FAA - Aircraft Mechanic at LAX, in California. If that wasn't enough...he later wanted to be a State Licensed Building Contractor. How selfish was this guy? He wanted to, "follow his bliss..." whatever that is, and make it to Hollywood? There, he actually, found bliss. Richard Bliss, who gave him street directions to Paramount Studios. He made a left... or right turn, or maybe just went straight. But I digress. The point being, he did go on, through twenty miles of snow... this high... Okay, he became a motion picture Key Grip in the film industry. He had arrived! Well, one would think that one would have been content... not Mike. He decided to author a book, (Remember... can't spell.) Not surprising to Mike, just the rest of the world, it did relatively well... eventually. So then he decided to teach at U.C.L.A. at the Extension course. He has been there; seen that, and most likely broke it. But yet, you say, you have never heard of any of the things that he has been part of? That's because Hollywood has a huge respect for each other. We never have leaks, we never squeal, or write tell all books. Most stories are all closely held and guarded set secrets... until now! Mike has worked with the Lone Ranger, Elvira, Val Kilmer, Al Pacino, and a few really famous people as well. So why would he break tradition and give away these secrets of how to get in the unguarded, unlocked, back doors, you ask? I posed that very question to him. "Mike, why did you give away all these secrets that you have had, tucked away, upstairs in that melon head of yours for over thirty-five plus years?" His answer was quite simple... "Ah... What?" (He's a grip; dare I say more?) I rewrote the question, "Why now?" His amazing answer... "It's time!" (I reiterate; he's a grip!) There, you have it folks, literally straight from the horses mouth... or the bulls other end! You will just have to read it and decide for yourselves. See you all in Hollywood very soon... or not!

“How I Broke into the Movies – and How You Can Too!” is a must-read for anyone who wants to act in film, as well as for fans of the silver screen who want to know what goes on behind the scenes. This straight-from-the-shoulder account written by an eighteen year veteran of the business, pulls no punches. Entertaining and informative, “How I Broke into the Movies – and How You Can Too!” is an easy-going, tell-it-like-it-is book that takes the reader along on the movie adventure Leona Toppel has been experiencing since 1983 (and she doesn’t live anywhere near Hollywood). Aspiring actors will find tips about how to register with agents, what kind of pictures they’ll need, wardrobe, safety (yes safety), what to do on the set – and what not to do, auditions, résumés and a myriad of other information. Cameos about some of filmdom’s brightest stars as told by those who were there are included. There’s a “Who’s Who and What’s What” section which explains many of the terms used in the movie business. Readers can’t help but smile at, and have compassion for, the ups and downs of the background actors who give movies that real look. Each chapter has its specific purpose: 1. Sex and Debauchery or Now That I Have Your Attention, Here’s How I Fell in Love with the Movies (O.K., so there’s not one bit of sex and debauchery anywhere in this book but this chapter will give you an idea of why movies have been important to me for as long as I can remember.) 2. How Would You Like to Be a Mother? The Day Fate Became My Agent. (You just never know when or how an important aspect of your life may change.) 3. A “Typical Day “ on the Set? FUHGEDABOUDIT! (Actually, there is no such thing as a typical day – and that’s just one of the aspects I love about the business. In this chapter you’ll find out how “exciting” a day can be.) 4. I Was Told to Pat Paul Newman on the Shoulder: Little Pleasures, Big Breaks.and Bad Hair Days (Here are some experiences movie fans dream about – with a few nightmares thrown in.) 5. Short Takes on Big Stars (You may be surprised when you read first-hand accounts about some of your favorite stars.) 6. You Meet Some of the Nicest People - and Some Others Who Are – Don’t Ask – I’ll Tell You (You’re sure to recognize some of these characters – whether you work in the movies or in an office.) 7. Did I Get It or Did She Get It? (Auditions are part of the movie/TV business, so deal with it.) 8. Safety First! (You’ve Got to Watch Out for Lots of Dangerous Things in This Business) (Try not to trip over your own feet – or put your foot in your mouth.) 9. Sparky and Friends (The best picture of an extra’s life can be gleaned through sharing their ups and downs.) 10. Show Biz Kidz (Got youngsters you’d like to get into the business? Think long and hard before you take that first step.) 11. A Wrap? No! Just the Beginning! (Here are detailed instructions for getting started in the business.) Each chapter adds another piece to the puzzle which, when completed, gives the reader the BIG PICTURE. Aspiring actor or movie fan, this is the book for you. After reading “How I Broke into the Movies – and How You Can Too!” you may find yourself on the way to a new career – or just on the way to see the latest flick. Either way, you’ll never look at movies the same way again.
