Sort of.
I’ve always dreamed of making a movie with Chevy Chase. And this morning, that dream came true.
Sort of.
My friend Mark was kind enough to bring me along to Chevy’s house, where I operated the boom on a video taping. So, technically, my dream came true. I’ll write more about it when the video is released, but I’ll just say right now that Chevy couldn’t have been nicer. He was warm, funny, incredibly kind, and he doesn’t beat his wife. What a guy! I interviewed him (over the phone) a few years ago, read a note that he wrote for me to read to the audience at a Nothing Lasts Forever screening, had seen him walk out of Letterman a while back, and he got stuck in traffic, which kept him from attending an NLF screening on Long Island last year… but I had never actually met the guy. It was an amazing experience that I will never forget.
