STILL ONLY 35 CENTS! The year was 1980. I had just kicked the coke habit and I was looking to get back into the editing gig.

Dancer in the Dark is an example of what it looks like when a filmmaker tries to appease financial backers. We got half our budget from anti-capital punishment people. Their only demand was to see a gut-wrenching execution scene. The other half came from NASA. They wanted me to hire an alien as my lead … Continue reading
