Director Statement

There is a great photo that has been running around or a meme of Four people in coffins and as skeletons. One says “I was thin”, another “I was famous” the next “I had a Ferrari”. Well they all have one thing Dead! You can’t take it even if you leave it all behind becomes a problem and an issue.

Is it really worth it? For me no, and sadly the “A” listers and others will never let that go.

You know the measure of a human when they see their own blood, mortality and how far at the bottom they have been. As humans we always over dramatize nature and reality.

“Loss is nothing else but change, and change is Nature's delight.”
—Marcus Aurelius, "Meditations"

“It is assuredly better to go laughing than crying through the rough journey of life.”
—KBP
