[DP] Isy's French Film

[Rich Woodward]

Steve, your experience was quite different from my own.  While 
his crew did ask me to make a cup of coffee, there were no repeat 
shoots of my comments and no prompting on the response.  He 
repeated over and over that if I didn't want to answer a question I 
didn't have to.  In retrospect, I wish I had been more thoughtful 
about my responses, but that was my fault not his.

> He also said he would send us a copy of the finished product in
