Audition at 30,000 feet

In a recent edition of the Vancouver Province, there was a news story about how Tom came to audition for his role in The Fog; and it all started on a plane journey.
During a flight from Vancouver to L.A. earlier this year, Tom and Jamie were seated near to (or in Jamie's case, next to) the movie's producer, David Foster, who happened to be reading The Fog's script during the flight. In a priceless moment, Jamie was bemused as he repeatedly looked up from the pages of his script to stare at her husband - apparently David had, although Tom didn't yet know it, found his Nick Castle.
Introductions were made, agreements were reached, et voila, David had the star for his movie.
Of course, just in case something was lost in my retelling (as it inevitably was), I should probably add that you can find a small scan of the article to your left; it was the best I could find, so please forgive the small text. And I'll just be sat over here, chuckling at the reporter's description of Tom as "lanky ..."
Thanks to Dee for giving me a heads-up about the article!
