this is all your flaws they deserve to be in backstage in
being the better known as yours is the only applause now that you're getting
you know retrospectively home
Morgan home I I wanted to ask you
when you get into this did you know you're going to end up with I had no
idea what I was in for
the idea was my producer guilt-free since
idea Gill was president the name records for many years
the economy ampersand in a nap because he kept a company together for so long
and done Gill seven years ago
had the idea that there is something interesting about backup singers
and he talked himself into helping to make a movie anything on me and he said
i
I wanna make a film about backup singer know you have two children have the
whole see what we have a whole story the ring true
you must get the whole story is from here you got to the realty
going okay the real story is on
Gill got stoned a letter calling card I
that's what I like am was fixated on the three lovely backup singers the entire
time
that was pretty and I kept wondering about them in
you know from that experience he decided to make a documentary
which which we did and as he told me later is the most expensive joint you
ever smoked
but a but
we had you know so i said im I love the idea of a film about acting as we have
in mind what's
what's the film is so that's your job you
we didn't know I mean if no map to this at all
no books no documentaries nothing and the only way to figure out what this
world was about
was to meet these ladies and so we started by doing fifty
interviews with backup singers or histories just to figure out what it was
about
and I think the first day we shot was with Darlene
and I turned to gil afterwards and so began was made only love document yeah
I would have been too happy with that yeah I started in the business now some
time but i won
