Giant

:21:02

And that was a lovely thing to say.

:21:04

He did appreciate other actors,
other artists.

:21:07

In the beginning, I was naturally
very interested in Jimmy as an actor...

:21:13

and as a person. I'd never met him.

:21:15

He stayed very much to himself...

:21:18

and was very distant.

:21:22

I thought,
"Okay, I will respect that and his privacy. "

:21:26

So I stayed very distant.

:21:29

But he was the only one, because
everybody else were like teddy bears.

:21:34

I love teddy bears.

:21:36

It took a while for us
to finally kind of share thoughts.

:21:40

But he didn't allow that.

:21:42

If I would just say even, "Good morning,"
he'd say, "Hi"...

:21:45

and sort of roll his eyes and so on...

:21:48

but nothing in the way of communication.

:21:52

So finally, I was taking pictures,
as I usually do, of everybody...

:21:56

and having a wonderful time.

:21:59

Finally he came up to me one day,
and he said:

:22:03

"You don't take any pictures of me."

:22:05

And I said, "I wouldn't think of it.

:22:08

"You obviously enjoy being by yourself...

:22:12

"because you never come around
and mingle with us, especially me. "

:22:16

And I said, "I try very hard...

:22:19

"to respect people's wishes as best I can."

:22:22

I said, "I wouldn't dream of bothering you
in any way, shape or form."

:22:28

"That's all right." He said, "If you want
to take some pictures of me, I don't mind."

:22:33

I said, "Honest lnjun?
That would be super. I'd love that."

:22:37

So that was the beginning.
That was the first step.

:22:40

And the steps came more regularly
and more often.

:22:44

I'd say, "Jimmy, tell me a story."

:22:48

He had a big thing about
the end justifying the means.

:22:54

But he also told me a story about...

:22:57

how one day when he was driving
in the hot desert...
