May 17, 1999
One more long night was all Paul and I needed to finish the M&E tracks.
We started getting a little sloppier as our deadline approached, and I
don't think we felt much of a sense of accomplishment as we wrapped up.
Mitchell Banks had told me not to be too perfectionist about these tracks;
I hope we didn't take that mandate too much to heart. I'll drop the
finished M&E tapes off with him this week, which will discharge the
last of my obligations to him; any future sales of HONEYMOON should require
no further work on my part.
It looks as if my days on the festival circuit are drawing to a close.
I found out that my film is too old for both Telluride and Toronto, which
were the festivals I was hoping to try this season. I still have
one or two more applications left in my folder of festival materials, after
which I'll retire gracefully.
