Me and my girl ain’t speak in weeks and I can’t remember the reason why, why, why. On top of that it’s a recession, I feel like Jay-Z; this can’t be the weekend.

Great Tony Kaye interview.
BTW not 1989 but 1998, just as American History X was coming out.
The Tony Kaye interview is really interesting. Especially when he talks about fighting for the creative.
“I went into battle twenty times a year and would maybe win six…winning means being happy at the end of the process”.
I was talking to my partner the other day about how hard it is to make an ad that you’re 100% content with, thanks to all the obstacles thrown at you.
Be interesting to see what other people’s battle ratio is.

I think they both used that speed reading app thing that came out a while back, then went down similar but different paths. But I think it’s the word technique that hold them both up.
