Today I talked with the Friend of Wonderful Sister. The Friend has managed to take a bunch of incongruous, wobbly movie clips and turn them into a fab-u-lous first scene for Stubborn. I mean it. Complete with a beautiful soundtrack. I will include it in another post - when I can morph a ".wmv" into a ".mov" because I have a Mac and Friend has sent it in PC format. Mac and PC appear to be mortal enemies...
And here's the well, damn! part of it: He saw the takes for what they were. Here are his words: "This is the first scene, isn't it? And she's (he knew it was a woman!) come back to where it all began - hasn't she? Well...damn!
Wonderful sister had talked to Friend but never gave away anything about the plot of Stubborn. And Friend saw it for what it was - an intro into a life experience of (what turns out to be) a remarkable woman. Well...damn!
Friend is a friend indeed. Although he is between jobs, Friend would not accept a dime from me. He said he had already been recompensed by Wonderful Sister - a gift of chocolate-covered strawberries. His favorite.
So, Stubborn is moving along, faithful reader. In increasingly mysterious ways.
