Lots of the questions that I\u2019ve been getting after individuals have seen the film are literally answered within the film, which is by design as a result of I would like individuals possibly to not know them. So, sure, it was a difficult tightrope to have them there, however not for the film to be about it.\u201d<\/p>\n
