@shannonandswift I pitched a movie about a couple of robbers who get out of prison, go to dig up the stolen loot, but there’s now a religious cult compound on top of it, so they have to join to get it.

One of my first jobs was as a P.A. on this movie. My last task was picking out Clint Howard's premiere outfit, for which Brian Grazer tossed me the keys to his white Mercedes and said, "Kid, you got the goods."

After college, my friend and I were driving to a construction job and cut through Beverly Hills. We stopped at a light, and Larry King walked briskly in front of us in a track suit. My friend leaned out the window: “Hello, Mr. King!” Without breaking his stride: “Hello, boys!”

Fuck it, I’m not sparing you. The fact that the movie “Big” exists is insane. The fact that kids went to see it is insane. The fact that adults hired babysitters to watch those kids to see it is insane. The fact that it’s shot like a drama and is super entertaining is insane.
