I've Very Rarely Worked With Somebody That

It Was When I Was On The Set Of Dead Poets Society.there Was Actor,his Name Was Norman Lloyd. One Day He Took Us All Aside And Said, "you Guys Don't Even Understand What A Powerful Experience You're Having. You Don't Really Understand What A Gift This Is." We Were Going, "what Does He Mean?" It Was That Really Wonderful Opportunities Aren't To Be Taken For Granted. I Often Found That It Had Embedded Itself In My Memory.

It Was A Really Strange Experience. It Was Very Creative For Alejandro Amenábar. It Was Almost Like It Was The Most I Ever Felt Like I Was Helping Someone Paint. They Had A Very Clear Idea Of What They Wanted It To Look Like, Sound Like, Be Like. So, There Was No Operating Outside The Box. The Only Way To Help Him Was To Try To Really Be A Part Of His Imagination And Try To Make It Happen. He's A Super Kind And Loving Person. So, You Wanted To Help Him. It Just Was None Of My Normal Ways Of Helping A Director Work At All. So, It Was A Unique Experience For Me That Way.

I've Had A Lot Of Experience In Independent Film, And About How To Choose. You've Got To Be Very Discerning About Where You Put Your Five Bucks, And Where You Cut And What You Don't Cut.
