I’m not gonna lie, it felt great to be out working on something new. It also felt a little eerie to be treading on the hallowed RHINELAND ground. I told Robert (George) when we were driving up the gravel road to park “Man, this place is permanently burned into my mind.”

We shot out here for three winters in a row. I feel like I have intimate knowledge of every tree, rock, and blade of grass along that stretch of road. How could I not?

It was cold, but not anything like when we shot the war movie. More like an invigorating kind of cold.

I was finally behind a camera again! Not making a movie, but laying the foundation, anyway. Shooting something, anything, is far better than doing nothing.

I think SON is going to be such a wonderful thing. A beautiful thing.

Familiar and different, all in the same breath.

….and we’ll also get to make some shit go boom.
