And I think the SMRs, hopefully, will be there by 2030. Hopefully. I know Westinghouse is working on one, and General Electric. They have good stuff coming. What do you think about China? China is great. They're doing so much in terms of building, not only nuclear reactors, but they're building... I lament their use of coal still. Yes, that's very evil.

But they are doing better and better and better, and they're amazing, some of their buildings. Amazing. They're the future. You're saying China's the future. It looks like it. They're doing the best, most modernistic work. And I have high hopes for the rest of the world. I mean, if you go to your countries, I mean, go out there to the stands.

Go out to that, you know, I did a documentary about Kazakhstan. It's an amazing place. It's very future thinking. A whole new generation. building things, creating new cities.

That's the way you think. Movies are a bad deal. Every time you have to make a new business every few years, it just doesn't work. You make a movie and they don't accept it. They don't understand it. It's ahead of its time, behind its time, whatever. It's not that easy, you know. So you spend two, three years of your life making a movie. I don't think it's an economical business.

I wouldn't go into it for that reason. You go into it as an artist, and frankly, you say, I want to make this. My passion is here. It's the most important thing in the world to me right now, and blah, blah, blah.

No, it didn't work for me. It doesn't work for me because you have to have a certain, he does what he does. You have to admire him. He was my teacher at NYU. Scorsese. He's lasted this long and he's great. He's good. Listen, he's made his deal.

I was paying attention. How about later on?

Yeah, my father would always talk about, we could have done it better, meaning there was something wrong with the hole in the movie and the hole in the story, the logic, the logic of it. But then you become too logic-ridden, and sometimes that undercuts you.

You saw The Hand, my horror film, and Seizure, my first film out of NYU. Okay. Yeah, no, but I had written Midnight Express, so he knew that I was on my way in that business, and I'd written a Conan and my screenwriting stuff.
