San Diego Comic Con 2024
Meeting Oscar-nominated actress Mary McDonnell ("Dances With Wolves," "Grand Canyon," "Donnie Darko," "Battlestar Galactica"), whom I've been a fan of for decades. After someone accidentally knocked over her water bottle (!), we had a chance to talk about her learning the Lakota language phonetically for "Dances..." and how she immersed herself in local tribes on location to get an affinity for the dialect/culture. We also talked about "Grand Canyon," which is a terrific film, and for which she seemed grateful others appreciate to this day. Wonderful lady.
