I think it's crazy that a man could put a portion of his life into a movie, and not care how it was tinkered with afterwards. I mean, he cared enough to add to the commentary track on the dvd. Most directors hate the idea of messing around with their film after they are finished, and I can't imagine that a movie that good could be done by a man who was only interested in a paycheck, or just doing it to pass the time.
