Producing is so exciting because you can enable things to happen whether it's like discovering a filmmaker who you're taking a chance on protecting a battle and driving home at the end of the day just going 'I'm so glad I stayed late at work and fought hard for that.

I come before you to declare that my sex are entitled to the inalienable right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
