From Los Angles - to the set of Cages
09/14/04
Hello,
I'm technically not part of the cast or crew of cages,
but I feel I have been a part of this project from the
beginning. For the last 4 or 5 years Graham, Alex and
several of his friends (including me)have met for dim
sum in Los Angeles's China town almost every Sunday.
During one of our weekend feasts I remember Graham
talking about a script he had just completed and
wanted me to read. The story has gone through several
rewrites and revisions since then, but the essence of
the story has remained the same. It's amazing that so
much hard work over the last four years has become
something tangible and real. Even though I'm not
working on the project, I hope I gave the cast and
crew some moral support while I visited the set. I
was there for the Club Street scenes, which I think
everyone agrees was very stressful. The great thing
about this project is that everyone is working towards
the same goal. People are not letting there egos get
in the way of producing a film everyone can be proud
of. I wish I had more time to spend in Singapore
because I barely got to see Graham with his 18 hour a
day schedule . I don't know how he has the stamina
for this, but I can say that I'm very proud of him and
happy the project is going forward. I won't forget
experiencing first hand the determination and tenacity
of the whole crew. Nothing worth accomplishing in life
is easy, but in the end I think everyone will be
impressed with the work they have done. Thanks,
everyone for treating me like family while I visited
Singapore. I hope to be back before they wrap it all
up.
Take care,
David Wittow
