i remember the day my parents took me to see this epic movie. It was the first time I felt that i was swallowed up by the the screen. I was in the movie.
To this day it still fascinates me to see behind the scenes footage of great movies I grew up on. It didn't matter that I'm also a film crew for 35 years. The camera operator went on to become the DP on The West Wing who created the look of the show and introduced the long walk & talk shots. I know this for one.. to direct and also be the Star of the Picture is no cake walk
