And then we grew up. We watched more movies and those feelings, that intensity, didn't go away. We realized that there are actual people creating those magical hours. We realized that we could be those people, that we could be part of that world and if we hadn't already written before that realization, that's when we started. We wrote and wrote and wrote some more and we'll continue to write because of that magic. It's not because of the money, it's not because of the fame, it's not because of the Oscar - it's because we want to, we need to, create that magic, the incredible clarity of the moment.
Does reality ever wear us down - sure. But it can never stop us. Magic.
