Paul Hills

"After the film a woman came up to me. She had tears in her eyes, she grabbed my arm and said to me "I love it, I love it and I'm going to see everything you ever do". I couldn't believe it. It was like a meteor came
from outer space and just hit me. Of course I've had that experience with
films that had blown me away, seeing the same thing which I feel about a movie that I really love in someone else. It effects me so much. That was
such a fantastic reward, such a fantastic present because filmmaking has
some terrific highs. Most of the time it is such a struggle you know? When
you get something like that you really get some hope and some sense of
relief and the feeling that maybe it was worthwhile and that's so hard to
come across. That was great. What was the question again?"
