If you go to Sundance, the experience that Ive had there as a viewer is… theres like a hundred movies there, and youve got to figure out what movies are sold out, what can you see.

The dubbing of the music and effects is really incredible today. Youre feeling gun shots. I mean, its not the way people say it is, but the gunshot sounds real. And cars sound real.
