And I prayed for decades that I could make that moment come to life on a film before anyone.
And fortunately, nobody did it.
You are absolutely right.
The first film I saw was...
was William Wyler's Wuthering Heights with Laurence Olivier.
I went with my mother to a cinema downtown that was super cheap and showed very old movies.
It was really gothic atmosphere with rain and the moors and Olivier.
It's basically a ghost story in many ways, Wuthering Heights.
And I fell asleep full of fear.
I dreamt my dream and woke up in the theater with the movie still playing.
So exactly, my first movie was part of a lucid dream.
Exactly.
You're looking at it.
I mean, that's when I fell in love with Gothic romance, and I couldn't have been more than four.
Why do I know it?
Because I remember the house we were living in where I was born, and my father won the lottery, the national lottery, in 1969, which would make me five years old when we moved from that house to a giant house in the outskirts of the city.
$6 million in 1969, which is the entire budget of Planet of the Apes.
Completely.
I mean, completely.
We moved into a house and lived a very sort of strange life.
