[Music] [Applause] JN [Applause] [Music] [Music] how you doing days [Applause] [Music] yeah I mean I think for [Music] not my wildest dreams you know I just remember just being focused on my goal of being a national champion and showing people what I was capable of and to have this opportunity in this platform to tell my story to the world it's truly a blessing and uh you know I'm just thankful that we can share the message that I was hoping to share which is no matter what you WR on life you can overcome it and that's what Unstoppable is I get it now the title [Music] he's just such a great person and has such a great heart but getting to the nitty-gritty of who he is and Beyond the surface it wasn't so easy so for me it was just about watching his mannerisms how he moved how he connected with his mother I spent uh about 2 and a half months living with him in Arizona so doing that helped me just watch without having to say much and observe without having to say much um and it you know it translated it was fantastic we're so close right now at this point we've been together for 20 years as director editor and you know we're friends and and he he he stepped into the producer Ro for me just the way he'd want one he was supportive he was helpful he never he never tried to overstep he he he was just there to support me and he was a phenomenal producer and I think he and Matt both set me up for success in a way that I could never thank him enough I think it's going to oh it performed it greatly first of all I've been lucky enough to work with some of the great directors in the greatest directors in the world and I feel like I soaked in everything that I could possibly soak in and you know and then when it was time for me to direct I called them asked some questions and you know they were all so happy for me and so supportive um at one point Katherine Bigalow offered to be my production assistant but uh obviously it's a joke but she she um no they were they were fantastic and uh I could draw on them as a [Music] resource well I had cursory knowledge of him and and what he has done you know I I saw clips of him wrestling and people were saying have you seen this dude this guy's got one leg and he's a beast so you you know there was just a lot of intrigue around that but then when I got to meet him and got to spend time with him Judy and his family and and and Coach Charles who I play in the film you know you just really see you know the real inspiration behind the story and you know we're just excited about it
