The movie Gene Hackman was forced into: “I would prefer not to be making this picture”
A regret.
Whatever floated his boat.
A life-changing moment.
“We had a little more going on…”
He wasn’t a spandex kind of guy.
It ended up creating an icon.
“I’ll probably see it eventually”.
It wasn’t worth the hassle.
Couldn’t deal with the pressure of success
