Paul Thomas Anderson hosted an award-season screening for your film. I think I’ve only told my wife this, so why not say it in an interview: That was the moment that was the most surreal of all this. I said to him over a drink, “It’s not a good movie,” and he so sweetly took me aside and said very quietly, “Don’t say that. Don’t say that it’s not a good movie. If you put it out there that the movie’s not good, they won’t let us make more movies like that.”Dude, Paul Thomas Anderson is out there on the wall for us!
