Nashville Beat night shoot. Me and the late Bernie Kowalski. Conversation went this way: Me (producer/writer): "Bernie, you're gonna be 2 days behind. What can we do to move faster?" Bernie (director): "The day was too long. Cut the script." Me: "Not gonna happen. I'm pulling the plug at midnight. You'll have to make it up tomorrow." Compromise - we went a day over. Loved Bernie.

Me and Jean Hester in Nashville. I hired her as production manager and she was so fantastic she became co-producer. And my friend to this day.
