That was the key thing in that film, who's in whose frame.

And so I was trying always to keep him in a single frame, nobody in his frame.

And then when I cut to the other person, he's in their frame.

but they're not in his.

I'll never forget one night we're standing outside and there was a guy lying in the Jersey Street, remember?

And we're still looking, we're talking, we're by the graveyard and we're going, what the...

Guy's not moving.

Missing his hands.

Yeah, yeah.

I said, guy's not moving.

Yeah, he's dressed nicely.

You kind of go over, Robert.

You were going over by looking around.

You came back and said, Jimmy just put a pencil in his head to make sure that it was a bullet hole.

That was when Mulberry Street was still the place where they dumped the bodies.

They called it Murder Mile.

It used to be called.

And the Bowery was called Devil's Mile.

So we were in between Murder Mile and Devil's Mile.

I became obsessed with all kinds of films, and I used my imagination, I was making up all these stories.
