And I am really worried.

And I'm well, I'm not worried.

I'm always worried about like there being no like mid budget, mid level, like middle brow star driven movies.

But I'm also worried.

I'm a little nervous.

Honestly, you're talking to all these great directors.

I'm worried that they're too great.

Right.

Like I'm worried that they're too good.

Where's the Stephen Frears?

Where's the Taylor Hackford?

Where's the Lhasa Holstrom?

Our guy Taylor Hackford.

Now, these are not, these aren't people that I need to, like, whose movies I need to be seeing all the time.

But, like, there is, like, a, where's the, where are the Carl Franklins?

You know, I think there's a, there's a tier of, you know, Joan Micklin Silver, Nora Ephron.

Like, there are people who are really good at doing a particular kind of thing that was never intended to, like, Walter Hill.

Dominate, Walter Hill, dominate the box office.

And so I don't know what it looks like because, you know, TV, those people used to come from TV.

And now TV and the movies aesthetically, they're almost indistinguishable from each other.
