Thank you.

Thank you.

It was pretty wonderful. She's just very dropped in and very present and very the thing, you know. What do you mean by that? Well, what I would say is that for people who don't work on movie sets is they seem fun, but they're actually the most stressful environments in the world because you have a very limited amount of time. to make lightning strike in a room and capture it on camera.

It's weird. It's actually like living under imaginary circumstances in the most artificial environment you could possibly imagine. You know, because it's not just there's shit everywhere. It's literally like outside of the shot that you see is fucking chaos. There's like grown men under couches with like a microphone sticking up like a hard penis at your face. You know what I mean?

There's like people running in the background like chickens with their heads cut off. There's like somebody's like walking in with like a birthday cake and hiding in the corner. You know what I mean? That is what is going on outside of the one shot that you have and every minute costs thousands and thousands of dollars and everyone is aware of it. Everybody's aware of it.

And so when I say dropped in about Michelle is like she is able to like 100% maintain this character and maintain herself and tune out the fury of 120 people running in and out of this room and desperate to get their jobs right, desperate not to fuck shit up, desperate to move as fast as we can. And so...

And so...

You know, when you create a company of actors who are fully committed to that moment and committed to just like staying inside this reality, you know, it's just you walk in the room and you're with Michelle and she's just there 100%. And so that's the first impression that I had of working with her. And it was immediately just like very, very comfortable. Shorthand.

Super, super comfy.

It's really, really beautiful. Yeah, that was so important to me because they've been together for a while. So there has to be love there and there has to be functionality there, you know. And that's what makes her departure that much more heartbreaking. I know.
