“If you read the description of this book and didnât feel you got exactly what you were expecting, plus a little bit more, thatâs on you, bro.
Pyun is such a great cinema character because he kinda made it, kinda didnât, and why isnât straightforward, but he seems like a genuinely nice person who often shielded other people on productions from some of the worst parts of filmmaking, which is a the move of a great person.
His love for moviemaking is infectious, for sure, as is Declouxâs love for Pyun.
This book gave me a good answer to the question âWhat would you do if you could go back in time?â And my answer would be to use my knowledge of the future to get rich and then bankroll Albert Pyun movies with healthy budgets and decent shooting schedules, just because Iâd like to see what that nets.
Itâs my new second-go-to answer to the time travel question. My number one answer is âKill baby hitlerâ because I figure that way I might get to time travel, but as soon as they turn the time machineâs keys over, I go back to audition for Number 1 Single, the reality show where bachelors try to date Lisa Loeb. Selfish? Yes. Frivolous, you bet.
I know Iâm supposed to end that with a âbut,â like âbut itâll change lives,â but it wonât. “
