Never revisit the past, that's dangerous. You know, move on.
What I would like to do is a thriller. I've been wanting to do that for a long time, but one that was not at all dependent on special effects. Just purely psychological, but will scare the hell out of you. That's what I would like to do. I have not found it yet.
It's an honor putting art above politics. Politics can be seductive in terms of things reductive to the soul.

What I would do is when I was younger I would draw in a sketch book something that happened in my life and then write a little something on the side about what happened or what the story.

Money speaks in Utah.
A few years after that first visit, I applied for a job in Yosemite.
