There's An Initial Point In The Editing, If You're Directing Yourself, Especially In My Case, Where You Go, "ouch, Ouch, Ouch, I Can't Watch This." And Then, There's A Point Where You Become Hard-nosed And Just Take Your Neurosis Away And Go, "what's Working? That's Okay. That's Okay. We Can Lose That, And Lose That." You Get Objective About It.
