For a while, people had told me that I should play Bilbo Baggins.

Now, I wasn’t really sure how to take this, whether to be pleased that they recognized my sensitivity as an actor, my ability to take on one of the most beloved roles in twentieth century literature, and carry a huge film by an Oscar winning team who had already made three of the most popular films in the history of the universe.

Or, did they just mean I had a funny looking face?

To be honest, I’m still not quite sure.
