IMDbPro caught up with Tamela D'Amico to get her best advice for aspiring actors, hear why One Little Finger is more than a film, and more! 4 of 6
IMDbPro: Do you have any mentors? How did you meet them and what have they taught you?
Tamela D'Amico: There are so many to list, but the immediate ones coming to mind right now are director Garry Marshall taught me how to read and re-write scripts in a way that makes sense for actors and to be comfortable in the notion that the writing is in the rewriting. Outside of the entertainment business, Don Fehr gave me the best advice of my life: "The greatest source of unhappiness in the world comes from having unreasonable expectations about the behavior of other people." If you can remember that quote, your stress level stays way down.
