You were the local joke, really, ... It kept sliding further into summer, and the locals were thinking it was going to be really funny watching these people try to make a movie under those conditions. Nobody could even open their mouth without a fly crawling into it.
L.A. is full of screenwriters. I don't know why. On many levels, it's such a thankless occupation.
Aw, look, I don't know. I think I'd rather him do that than me.
They all have their share of thoughts about what needs to be done. So we just ignored them.
