It sounded good. It was a story that Victor Conte told me to use. I was contacted by Dr. Goldman, and that's how the story came about. And that was my first time ever meeting, or speaking, to Dr. Goldman.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm not sure exactly what Victor told Dr. Goldman, but I don't think he fully knew what was going on... I think he was really oblivious. I don't think he knew.
Of course, I'm not allowed to talk about the script, but I can say it is a really good story.
I suppose that I was a kind of consultant for taste. Is it good taste? Or bad taste? I had an attention to detail, to what would tell best the story. Because many people get excited about the work and drift off from the story.
I felt like Alan Turing's story was such an important story to tell, and it was so wonderful to write the script and other people find it and say, 'I never heard this story.' It's such an amazing story that people don't believe it.
As a journalist, as a screenwriter and as a director, I'm trying to tell compelling and truthful stories.
Not only is your story worth telling, but it can be told in words so painstakingly eloquent that it becomes a song.
There has always been this narrator in me - I loved ideas, and part of the great love affair I would have with ideas consisted of talking about them.
I don't care whether the story is real or fantastical. I tell the story that needs to be told.
It was suggested that I take a recording test. I passed, was liked and, well, you know the rest of the story.
No, it's not a very good story - its author was too busy listening to other voices to listen as closely as he should have to the one coming from inside.
