@tonytost I have to go with Lumet. BTW - The opening to DOG DAY AFTERNOON is one of the best time capsules ever committed to film.

@tonytost Content creators of the past were likely from working-class/offspring. Not the case now. Don’t like class warfare, but working-class is fertile ground for interesting stories due to the looseness of that culture (at least in America). Affluent not as interesting, generally.
Go make movies.
It's easier now than ever before.
Don't wait to be taken seriously.
Don't wait for a stamp of approval.
Be kind, ask for help, get the footage.
Learn to edit, work late nights, wake up early.
Never feel inadequate, nobody knows what they're doing either.
@rkylesmith Always heard Harding was one of the worst presidents because of the Teapot Dome Scandal. This incident takes up about a half a page on wikipedia and sounds like business as usual in Chicago.
