people you want to upset…the general hubbub says they’re going to be around in this business for
years…oh, my heart…that would explain it…
“Well, I thought I heard about a casting call for a part but I guess no one was going to tell me they were

“Hey, remember, I’m just producing this little epic. He’s the executive in charge of production. He’s going
to call the shots.
“I know, I know…honey, slow down. Look, I know our publicity department hasn’t been up to snuff on
