And I got to ad-lib a little bit and I was part of that.
But for the most part, Kevin was like, you have to stick to the lines that I write.
So – and then I would maybe throw in an ad-lib and he'd be like, OK, that's funnier.
So we'll say that the next take.
Yeah, I think for him it was just to edit it and try to submit it to film festivals.
And I do know...
Again, he knows better, but I know that the first time he screened it, there was like a New York Film Festival he got in.
I guess it was only on like two screens, and both screenings there was like ten people in the theater watching it.
And there was a gentleman named Bob Hawk that was in the theater, luckily, who –
Passed it on to another gentleman who was like, you have to see this movie.
And that gentleman submitted to Sundance and got them to watch it and all of that.
And that's when Kevin went to Sundance and Miramax bought it at Sundance.
No, I feel like it really was like timing.
Like I feel like if that happened now with everything out YouTube and all these different like social media, it just seemed he, he had, it was $27,500 or whatever.
And he sold his comic book collection.
He borrowed money from the producer.
He met the producer and the DP at film school in Vancouver.
So I remember it, that was, that was the whole part of the story.
Like, you know, uh,
Kevin Smith sells his comic book collection and meets the producer at Vancouver Film School and quits film school because he's like, I can do this myself.
