Gene always said, I don't think about legacy. I just hope people remember me as someone who tried to do good work. So I think I speak for us all when I say, Gene, you'll be remembered for that and for so much more. Rest in peace, my friend.
I guess maybe you can have both. I do have both. But I spend most of my time in Alabama. Do I have to put these on? You don't have to do anything you don't want to do.
That's right. I was given a choice of not. I would not.
Well, it's the only part of the business that, let's call it an imposition. You have to do it. And it gets old.
Oh, shit. We just turned it off.
I don't react well to air conditioning. Oh, tell me. Well. It makes you sniffly. It steps up my head. I'm allergic. Specifically, if I get air blowing on me, cool air, and that's it. First of all, my head stops and I sneeze. I do all the things that you do if you're allergic to something. Right. And I know why you're allergic to things. You don't like it. Sure. You don't like it.
Oh, okay. And then your mom was also a teacher at some point? A little later, yeah, she started to teach music because she played the pi-nana.
Yeah. Tickled the ivory. Yeah.
She didn't have the patience to teach me. Either that or I didn't have the patience to learn. I wanted to play the piano. I didn't want to learn how.
Oh, when I was a toddler. No, I'm sorry.
My long-term memory, most I think, is pretty much intact. It's like five minutes ago.
There are moments in your childhood that are just clear. I have moments when I remember something when I was four or five.
I was a little boy during the war. How old was I when it ended? I think eight, maybe? 37 you were born, ended in 45. Good math.
Right on, because mine sucks. Always has. How were you as a student? I was very good as a student. I just wasn't good in math. I read a lot. That set me up with English teachers. Everybody else except math instructor. But he was kind to me because I was a star.
That grandma was my paternal grandma. Died at age six and a half. While you were there. Oh, yeah. I remember I'm a junior, so my name was Junior. There were two or three ladies sitting with her while she was dying. And then finally, say, you think she's dead? Well, call Junior and have him call her. If she doesn't answer, she's gone. You were the test.
Yeah.
Shook her, called her name, and she wasn't there anymore.
Mm-hmm.
Did you enjoy living with her? The little boy. Yeah, I was the apple of her eye. Both grandmothers were worthy.
I always wanted to be in the movies. I didn't see stage plays. Right, right. I was living in the movies. So that was where my passions lay and lie.
