And then I actually delegate it to a fabulous team for finishing and audio.
And a lot of times I I don't think I've seen the final print of Washington.
Um just because after I can't change the story, my team is incredible and we do a lot of work together and uh and I'd rather just wait till it opens.
Um
Yeah, it it's two things for me, if I were to talk really philosophical, I would say for a long time in my life, I think a lot of artists do.
You put so much of your your identity into the work itself that you and it never works in that way.
Like if you if you're yeah, you're welcome to a volatile, you know, uh life of and so I think I had to over time
put less of my identity in the work and just more identity in just doing the work in the sense of like uh constant improvement in craft and just a love of the game.
I love what I get to do.
I it's a privilege of a life of a lifetime to get to entertain people and putting less of my identity into the result of the work and just more identity into
You know
myself and also just into the doing the work and the fun of it and the joy of just doing the work.
tends to make better work and better work tends to work more and so oddly enough you kinda get the thing that you're no longer chasing a little bit.
And so for me, just the sheer love of storytelling and stories and their meaning and uh what they do, and then being able to just take the stories that are most meaningful to me that I think find me in some way over long periods of time, and then trying to transmit that experience to the audience as much as I can is a joy.
Beyond that, it's almost like you're a football coach where it's like, you know, I have learned success is the
the byproduct of incremental improvement um over a lot of areas, especially in something like film.
So it's all about like how's the special teams, how's the defensive line, how's the punter.
In that world with theatrical movies, it's like how are the pre-sales?
How are our grassroots efforts?
How's the you know and you have to like fire you have to execution over many, many areas at the same time is uh really important.
