Well, perhaps the greatest achievement, and we didn't know it at the time, was we held an Earth Day in 1970, and out of that Earth Day a lot of students got involved in saving the environment, or trying to. ↗

I don't think you can ever completely transform yourself on film, but if you do your job well, you can make people believe that you're the character you're trying to be. ↗
