You are 100% right. Your advice is on the mark. Everyone told me to avoid making my best work. They didn't know from snippets what it was about. A dear friend, connected to T. Malik said told me avoid it. But it works, it was me and it's authentically my style.
I worked harder, cared more, because it was me. I found my niche, 19th century American Literature brought to film. We are already working in pre-production on Hawthorne's The Blithedale Romance.
Thank you for caring and advising someone because you wanted, not because it would benefit you

This is a great great piece! Thank you
“Smashing” read, it hit a mark or two - thanks. I thought Lorde’s first album had that ambitious feel to it as well. Such a different sound.
Well said on all fronts!!
