Self - Director: I was over at Francis Coppola's and "Duel" was going to be shown that night. So, I sort of snuck away from the party and I said I want to see this film. I want to see what this kid did. You know, I was sort of on the fence about Steven. He knows what he's doing. Nice. But, a little too Hollywoody for my taste. I saw "Amblin" and I thought "Amblin" was nice, but, it wasn't, you know, it was very, very flashy, it was very, very professional. And for the rest of us, we were all rough-edged, crazy guys that were doing much more dirty work. So, I thought, well, I watch the first half hour and just see what he's up to. And I end up watching the whole thing. And I came down to Francis and said,"This guy's amazing. You really got to look at this film."
