My first-ever job in the movie business, I was an art student at Carnegie Mellon, and they were shooting the movie 'Gung Ho' in Pittsburgh, and I worked as an extra for a few days. Michael Keaton bumped into me in one scene, and it's in the movie. And I worshipped him.
The Holy Grail audience are young people and, at the end of the day, that's who gets courted.
'Duel' is one of the greatest suspense films of all time.
It's like I'm thin skinned, I guess, but I thought I could never write about my youth for the longest time. It took getting to my forties before I could even look back on it.
I specialize in movies that people say are underrated, with the exception of 'Superbad.'
