I'm fascinated to know how the two of you have experienced that in your careers.

8:01Mark DavisGUEST
You know, getting to the truth was something that I think I always understood that it was important to tell the truth if I was making a documentary.

8:10Mark DavisGUEST
But when I started making documentaries, the big problem I had to solve was how to deal with these people who were so much smarter than I was.
M
8:19Mark DavisGUEST

8:32Mark DavisGUEST
I found my way into a lot of films that at first were about evolution, and I had to really learn about that.
M
8:41Mark DavisGUEST
But I had to find a way to relate to the experts that I was talking to so that they would know that I was curious about what they did and that I really didn't know that much about it.
