Early in my career I had the honor of working with the great Robert Wise, director of The Sound of Music, and editor of Citizen Kane.
He personally shared with me, his three Ps: Passion, Patience, and Perseverance. Little did I realize that these three Ps are some of the most quotes memories from Bob. He followed with, “You have to do this if you’ve got to be a filmmaker.”
I didn’t fully understand what he meant until this week. I turned in a project that I’ve been a part of for five long years. This journey has been met with every kind of hurdle and roadblock. As I turn the corner to completion, I remember Bob’s kind smile, and gentle voice. Now I finally get it.
Stay tuned, as we await to hear the fate for this sweet labor of love.
