How did that role give you insight? Because I will tell you, I watched The Pianist again, and then I watched The Brutalist. And so I would kind of watch them back to back. And of course, as you said, yeah, there are some heavy times, but really like a very, it was really important for me to watch it that way. And I'm glad I did.
