I really enjoyed the film-it made me laugh out loud several times which is pretty unusual. Keep it up! (That could be Herb-Erect’s slogan, no?)

Seems to me you left out Bigfoot’s cousin Sasquatch - maybe he can appear in ANALOG.

Thanks Mike. That would have meant a lot to him. Dad called after shooting the scene and Luke got on and told me the same thing. You both have made it a very meaningful memory for me as well!

Ray — Your father was a joy to work with. You and your family should know that he’s responsible for one of the bigger laughs in the movie (when he charges out of the bingo hall on his scooter). I’m very glad to have met and worked with him.

I can relate to Mike’s Mom telling him that he’d better not put her into a nursing home, because my Dad always told me the same thing. And he stayed sharp until the day he passed. He is in several of the nursing home scenes in Tenure. My Father is the guy in the motorized wheel chair who charges out of the bingo hall after Luke announces that jars of “Herb Erect” were being given away. He is then seen speeding off with an entire box on board (also depicted on the DVD jacket cover).

Yes, the comments about independent film were very similar to what Kevin Smith spoke about at MacWorld a couple weeks ago. I hadn’t realized it was that bad.

That was a really great interview! How cool that he wrote it for Luke. He’s right about the state of independent films. I look forward to this movie. Unfortunately I can’t pick it up until the end of March so I have to wait.
