p.s. the process of making this work appears not very different than how Truman Capote described his need to seek truth by diving head first into deeply physical research in the making of his grand novel, "In Cold Blood." To be brutally honest and to speak the truth one must somehow gain a private license to enter into lives that ask, and merit, a certain earnest divergence once a truth of the matter has been disclosed. After all, Harper Lee is still around and she may want to see the film when you are through (with it), Jane. bye.
