Sara Gruen, author of adapted for movie book Water for Elephants, had a chance to try on her acting skills. Her and he r husband were cast as extras in a scene ehwre the circus parades down Weehawken, N.J. for the film due out April 15, 2011
“We retook that scene I think 18 times,” Gruen recalls. “I’m the one Rob Pattinson (who plays veterinarian Jacob Jankowski) elbows past and says, ‘Excuse me, ma’am’ to.”
She also talks about what it was like working with Tai the elephant:
“Her trainer told me to hug her trunk,” says Gruen, “so I did, and suddenly I was 7 feet in the air. She gave me many kisses, probably because I always carry mints for my horses, so I was slipping her candy every time I got a chance.”
