I like storytelling movies and more than that I like historical movies; and I think someday I'll definitely make a movie about the past 50 years history. ↗

It puzzled me that other people hadn't found out, too. God was gone. We were younger. We had reached past him. Why couldn't they see it? It still puzzles me. ↗
