"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?"
