Quote

We had a work session [in Moneyball] where about 30 scouts came in and we're all riffing. And after it, [director] Bennett Miller said: Look at these faces and this is what we have to got to do. We got to get these guys in the scene.

Family comes first so I only have this specific window of time available to me and because of that I actually get more done.
