Do You Ever Have Those Moments When You're Making a Movie?

I didn't have big expectations in terms of people understanding this, thinking that I was making a movie about key moments of my formative years. Of growing up inside a very unusual family until people started seeing the film and then immediately telling me about the similarities about their childhoods. And suddenly all these notes and letters and emails and texts came pouring in. How great. My story wasn't so unique after all. Well, which is... Which by the way is a great lesson. I think that all of us go through as we get older, we start to recognize if we can look for the similarities in other people, then we can start to recognize how not unique we are as people.
