Is your next film the film you REALLY want to make? Is it the film that is going to just say that one thing that you really want to say? Are you assuming that you will be able to make another film after this one? Are you making the film people want to see, or the film that you will talk about these things that sound good.... or.. or... or is this the film you are making because this is the last thing you will ever do... because that could happen. Im really not saying this in the fartsy way.. Im just really trying to ask myself. If this was the last one, would you make it.

On the Audio: Into the West, by Annie Lennox.. and I just saw Cameron Duncan's piece on the Rings DVDs, and his short film Strike Zone. Just incredibly well done... I mean, of course the documentary piece was very well put together but Im demeaning this incredibly talented, sensitive, 16 year old, terminally ill gentleman by examining the semantics of that segment.

I dont know. I think it feels like I might have lost perspective. This isn't about having fun, this is about saying something that touches others. Suds, this is about saying something that you have both the time and the opportunity to say.
