And you see in the book, clearly I'm a penniless, clueless filmmaker. Making this movie, I think by myself, I think it's going to work. I don't know. A borrowed camera. I didn't even know how to use it.

And I had to shoot the whole movie in two weeks.

Yeah, that was accident. Yeah. Yeah. If you can look at all the compilations, it starts with Desperado because it was an accident. I didn't think, you know, this is what happens on Desperado. In the script, it says he throws some grenades over the side of this building to blow up the bad guys, and him and Salma walk away. It was just supposed to see some body parts fly. It was just a grenade.
