He did say back then that he had TONS of unused footage (He was shooting every scene in many different versions and was editing almost a year and a half because of that.)<BR/>Of course I'll be happy with everything he would be done.

I think it's possible that "the firt go-round" that was mentioned is referencing the first cut of the movie, as opposed to this new cut that he is talking about. I don't think he is referencing the Brad Pitt "Fountain" at all. Though that would be absolutely unbelievable.<BR/>I think I am going to go pop in some Clint Mansell and think about Rachel Weisz.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-90529283848572574822008-12-05T12:20:00.000-05:002008-12-05T12:20:00.000-05:00Not so sure I like this, either.

Hugh Jackman was just phenomenal, one of the best performances of the DECADE - how he wasn't nominated is beyond me. Actors only hope to give turns like that in their lifetime.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
