"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...

:23:00
during this hot summer in Texas,
and it gets really hot.

:23:04
It was one of those blacktop highways.
:23:07
He came upon a wreck.
There had been an accident.

:23:11
A black man who had been injured
was lying out on the side of the highway...

:23:16
in this hot, boiling Texas sun.
:23:19
And it took an hour...
:23:21
for them to get an ambulance there
to help him, and the man was hurt.

:23:26
Jimmy stood over him...
:23:30
and afforded him shade for that hour.
:23:33
To shade his face
so he wouldn't be lying in that boiling sun.

:23:38
He was very touched by the fact
that the church...

:23:43
the preacher, the minister had spoken
about that, about his humanity...

:23:47
about stopping on the side of the road
to help somebody.

:23:51
He was very touched by the fact
that they had talked about it in church.

:23:57
I couldn't believe all that he went through
before he did a scene.
