I wanted to write a long winded essay about how gruelling and tough this project was and what this script meant to me. But the simple truth is I only got through it all because of how much I love this craft and how lucky I feel to be able to do what I do. I had a team that made each day on set feel like it was all going to work out, even when it looked like it may not. So no essay for you today, just some light self depreciation and a whole lot of gratitude.
