The Emerald Forest

... from one of the greatest d- directors, right? John Boorman, uh, point-blank, Hell in the Pacific, Deliverance, The Astonishing-

...

Excalibur.

Emerald Forest, one of my favorites.

Uh, Hope and Glory, and In- uh, The General, one of the greatest...

Zardoz I love.

Strangely enough, Boorman, a director who I love, uh, as, as much as you do, one of the most thoughtful directors, he's written several, uh, books of, of memoir.

He's sort of that guy.

He also wrote The Emerald Forest.

He's not credited on Exorcist 2, but the documentary makes it clear he was very involved.

No one knows who he is.

think that book is amazing too like you said because the person is there and there's no there was ever there wasn't another edition right where she looked back and was like ah yes looking back no it's just in the moment John Borman was really big on that.

He wrote a lot of diaries.

He has one about the Emerald Forest as well, when he shot it.

He had a whole magazine called Projections, which I love, where every article is written by a different filmmaker.

Mm-hmm

... was in a movie that he did called The Emerald Forest-

Gotcha

... where he, like, uh, I think, you know, this explorer loses his kid in the rainforest, comes back years later, and he's grown up with a tribe.

So I would never advise anybody to go in after them.

Did you ever see that, I think it was a John Borman movie from the 70s called, I think it was called The Emerald Forest.

It had like Powers Booth in it.

Oh yeah, yeah,
