This is powerful. And I feel this probably says most things, probably everything about the current state of the film industry. I respect your truth and personal/professional authenticity Ted. It partly reminds me of Daniel Day Lewis not wanting to act in movies anymore, due to the lack of quality and oversaturation of mediocrity. As an actor, writer, producer...as well as embarking on my directorial debut, for my sins I'm still going, I'm still fighting the good fight. Still fighting for quality over quantity. To aspire for the highest standards I can possibly achieve. But everything you so rightly say Ted, we are all up against. I don't know what the answer is yet...but my passion, love and light keep me going.

I’m interested in hearing what you feel the gap is between when you wrote this and now, if any? By the way, I know I’ve been silent, but I’ve been on vacation for two weeks and haven’t even gotten back to the US. But I’m still reading.
