I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

"I'm the genuine article. What you see is what you get" is a big inspiration for how I try to carry myself. Fantastic line.

It's a known fact that PTA was on-hand as AD, and that Altman would basically direct PTA via walkie talkies. The persistent rumor is that PTA went beyond typical AD duties, and was basically driving the performances as well as some of the technical stuff. I've watched the film a few times, and I swear I can see both directors' influences. But I'm not really sure, I may just be telling myself I see PTA's hand when it's all Altman.
Yeah I've heard that. I know Altman wasn't well during filming. But I think the movie is still thoroughly Atlman.
