And then you take a bunch of people taking themselves and putting themselves in the movie. But essentially you take yourself and put it in the movie. What does it mean when you give a performance?

But part of what the movie is to me and to Roman, it has something to do with actors and this strange thing that they do. I said, "You know, it’s a good thing." It’s a little foreshadowing.
