I read it.
And I called her the minute I finished.
I said, this is a great film.
Great film.
Needs some work, but great film.

I have a great idea of how to put it together.
And I said, I'm going to tell you and tell me honestly what you think, because we were about directness and honesty and truth.

Tell your clients the truth.
People in the entertainment business were just always lied to.
I would see agents tell their clients that they had just seen a film where they had just seen dailies where they were no good and something was wrong and they needed to be reshot.
They'd say, oh, you look great.
Tell them what they want to hear.
And you know what?
It's interesting.
They appreciate it.
I want to be told the truth.
But in any case, I said to Amy, we have a director we represent, was one of my very first clients as a writer.
His name is Barry Levinson.
