Money
"I think we were the first picture to cut on Final Cut Pro. So we were the guinea pigs, because we got a deal on the system. But with that comes all sorts of technological problems I couldn't begin to describe."
First
"My hunger and desperation, being an actor, an out of work actor - my memory of that is as fresh as an open wound."
