0:32.1 | Here is the rest of our interview with M. Scott Smith, where he's talking about some various editing projects that |
0:39.3 | he's worked on over the years. We're talking about mobsters. We're talking about the crow. |
0:43.7 | We're talking about Dark Man. Some good stuff here. I didn't want to leave it on the cutting |
0:47.4 | room floor. Thank you very much. And enjoy. |
0:50.9 | You've worked on so many fascinating projects. I mean, stuff that I'm a big fan of, especially, you know, things like Dark Man and The Crow. |
