Dwight Yoakam
"'m really proud of it. To me, it's a movie about character behavior and the pecking order of the pack, as well as the central character's massive survival guilt."

Character

Quote_1.png
Dwight Yoakam
"I was very fortunate in having David Fincher, the director come to me. Now I've seen the finished product, I feel that every bit of the nine months we spent on the film was worth it."

Film

Quote_1.png
Dwight Yoakam
"Only beginning to present itself over the horizon."

Beginning

Quote_1.png
Dwight Yoakam

Music

Dwight Yoakam
"A voice expressing emotion in a musical way moves on. It's like the finale of the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) - the world turns in on itself, as a universe unto itself, in the shape of one human being."

Being

Quote_1.png
Dwight Yoakam
"Fortunately any of the songs we've recorded can be extremely fulfilling to perform depending on the variety of circumstances that surround any given show."

Circumstance

Dwight Yoakam
"At the end of the film Val suggests there may be a way to rejoin the living, when he says, 'Let's see if we're able to live among the living, walk among the living.'"

End

Dwight Yoakam
"In addition, I'm finishing a track for the movie 'Waking Up In Reno', but there are numerous other singers I look forward to recording with in the near future."

Future

Quote_1.png
Dwight Yoakam
"But that is a valid, continuing service that that music - which is, in some cases, 80 or 90 years old - is rendering. And proving its own timelessness."

"We started shooting, and then Jodie found out she was pregnant. Forest broke it to me - he'd gone to work and heard it on the radio! It seemed like the movie was doomed. But, like these characters, there was a disregard for all the signs along the way."
