So how do you like giving the same interview 250 times?

Yeah, well, I've done it before.

So, yeah, you know what?

It's interesting, isn't it?

Alanta was interesting because my first interview was with a black journalist from CNN who just

really felt under siege.

So that was interesting and just my movie is very emotional, you know, it's very, so she

was sort of crying all the way through it, and then she

was talking to me about crying. So it became one of those interviews as opposed to be plugging it.

Oh, I got to say before, because Joe and I were both at that screening at the, what was the hotel?

The something hotel. The something. Some hotel. Yes. And it was nice and loud.

It was, and I, I, uh, my wife and I met your husband Paul right before and had a nice

conversation with him.

And then, um, when I walked out of the movie, he was the first person I saw.

And I, we had this moment.

He was standing there.

It's like, I just want to hug him.

I love the movie so much. Imagine a movie that engenders that kind of feeling. Yes. I was like, oh.

It's interesting because the, it was in Dallas for a screening and it was for the American Film Society there and a woman

who runs it she said to me you know she said we're your movies come at the right time because

we're all a little bit you know we're all in a collective depression she said yeah and Yeah. And I said, and then in Texas, everyone hugs you, right?

So they all came out of the movie hugging me.
