Cool, thanks.

This is why Chloe is so cool. She isn't afraid to show us the real hollywood. Most actors would be too vain to talk about a real audition while Chloe openly admits how hard it was and all. She is awesome! I can't wait!
Nice find Sav!

Out of all the movies coming up featuring Chloe, this is the one I'm most excited for. I don't know why, it just is. Perhaps when I watch it my opinion would have shifted? Who knows.

I am highly anticipating 'Hick' and I will be going to see 'Dark Shadows' on it's release day. Not that Dark Shadows particularly interests me - it's more of a tribute to Chloe Moretz (To watch all of her movies).

Thanks for the link, Sav. I remember Chloë's and Trevor's Tweets from this day (it was a Saturday) and how hard she works. That's the reason why Chloë is such a great actress - it's the way how professional she works.
I saw some audition and making-of videos of her on YouTube (remember that from the Audition for Let me in) and I can imagine how hard she really works to get such a role and she derserves it so much to get it.

Chloë puts all her energy in this role and trust me, she will be a very, very good Carrie - maybe the best Carrie ever.

Let see it... hopefully masterpiece like "Hugo" was...

Yeah, a 5 hour audition...

Is that even legal? I think the rules for filming with children is like 4 hours max a day - but maybe the rules for auditions are less strict.

And I wonder at what age actors can work full time? Maybe the rules are less strict already at 15?

EDIT:

Found some interesting reading here:

Page 18-19 states:

Work Day Rules
The SAG contract governs minor’s work hours everywhere in the United States Unless stricter work hours are mandated
by the state.

Work day rules that are as follows:
• Minors may not work before 5:30 a.m. or after 10:00 p.m. on evenings preceding a school day (work days must end
by 12:30 a.m. on non-school days). The minor’s final work day must be concluded at least twelve hours before the
beginning of the minor’s next regular school day.
• On a school day (determined by the calendar of the district where the child resides), school age minors must receive
at least three hours of instruction. Maximum allowable hours and times of instruction vary by grade level.
• Minors through age 15 must be accompanied at all times by a parent or guardian.Minors age 16 or 17 may
work without a parent or guardian but are entitled to have a parent or guardian present. The parent or
guardian is entitled to be within sight and sound of the minor at all times.
• Minors who are high school graduates are exempt from the child labor laws and may work on the same basis
as adults.

School Age Minors
On a school day, school age minors may work as follows:
• Ages 6 to 8 — four hours (maximum of eight and one half hours on the set).
• Ages 9 to 15 — five hours (maximum of nine and one half hours on the set).
• Ages 16 and 17 — six hours (maximum of ten and one half hours on the set).
• On days when school is not in session, school age minors may work an additional two hours a day.
• On all days, the minor must have at least one hour of rest and recreation and one half-hour meal break.
• By prior arrangement with the studio teacher, up to two hours of school may be banked (stored) to offset
additional work hours on other days; there must be at least one hour of school on each day the minor’s
regular school is in session.

So first at age 16 is Chloë allowed to work without a parent present - and at 15 max 5 hours work and max 9.5 hours on set.

you meen Mary Elizabeth "Sissy" Spacek...

[justinodunn]

Who cares? As long as she enjoys what she's doing, it's not much of a big deal...

Such true words... Total agree with you.

Apparently, Hailee Steinfeld has just joined the cast.

Two of my favorite actresses in the same film. Now I want to see this even more than I did before.

...Maybe I can get my parents to change their minds... O.o It'll probably be worth it.
