Quotes from CJ Adams of ‘The Odd Life of Timothy Green’

I’m a lucky blogger. Even though I couldn’t attend an exclusive screening of The Odd Life of Timothy Green last weekend, I still was able to participate in a quick telephone interview with CJ Adams, the 12 year old who plays the title character of Timothy Green in the film.

Here are just a few of my favorite parts of the interview:

What is the best thing about Timothy and do you have that trait?
CJ Adams: [Timothy Green] is very truthful. The best thing about Timothy is he treats everyone the same no matter how they act and that’s what I do too. Having a good heart was the best thing about Timothy.
