I don't really care how much the latest superhero film took at the box office, although I'd probably know if you asked me. When I watch a film the main thing I am looking for is a good story. I like it when I look up at the big screen and can see a part of me staring back at me. More than anything, I am still looking for Jimmy Stewart and Jack Lemmon and Billy Wilder in every film I see.

2011: Our Odyssey - The Video
A few days ago I wrote an article called 2011: Our Odyssey, and then last night, as 2010 drew to a close, I thought it'd be a great idea to have it as a video, with someone saying it. After all, I'm a writer/director, my words are okay on the page, but they're better when someone with real talent can bring them to life.
So I emailed the wonderful Tracy Clifton and asked her to perform it to camera, which of course she agreed to do because she's the kind of actor who gets things done. So, here is '2011: Our Odyssey' the video version, and I hope you're as inspired by Tracy as I am.
SO awesome of you to ask me to do this! (I feel weird high-fiving myself for the video so I'll just thank you again for writing such kick ass, inspiring words.) You're totally wonderful, Kid. :)
I was blown away by the passion of this call, this manifesto to authentic art and authentic love of art. Bravo!
