00:00The You Can See Everything trailer is going absolutely viral online right now.
00:04Did you see that coming?
00:05And does that film feel like it has similar themes to this one
00:10and like doing the right thing for the wrong reasons?
00:12Well, I'm really excited.
00:14Both of Nathan and I were super pumped about the reaction coming out of Telluride.
00:19So much of it, weirdly, I think, came from the fact that no one had any context
00:22for the movie's existence and didn't know what to expect from it.
00:26So I want to preserve that feeling for people.
00:30And I feel like I don't want to skew any perception by saying how I feel about it
00:36or maybe, you know, even just these two movies.
00:39They were made, you know, the same cinematographer shot both primetime
00:43and you can see everything, the same composer.
00:45So a lot of the same people that I normally work with I brought into that project too.
00:50But I want people to see it.
00:52And I want people to also know if you have seen it, please, for the love of God,
00:57just don't tell people to come see the movie but do not spoil it
01:00because the experience, I think that's what we are seeing from just the reaction
01:04from the teaser trailer.
01:05People do not know what to make of it.
01:08And so I want that to be out there.
01:10I want people to watch the movie and then I'm excited to talk about it again
01:14and, you know, get into all of it once it's out.
01:17And then you can do it again
