PW: What I've found refreshing about working with you is your complete lack of cynicism. The script as it was first passed to me was nearly three times this length and you'd clearly poured heart and soul into it. Throughout our focusing of it I don't think you ever once became frustrated with the process.
MD: Because it's always been a labour of love and when you love your work what is there to be negative about?
