"I knew him slightly, mainly during the time I worked on Captain EO. Every Friday, I'd buy him a present — something small and fun — and he'd be very excited about what it was. He was very sweet, but also very deliberate. He loved to learn and during rehearsal he had fun learning how to properly salute and do an about face. He got a kick out of being military. He reminded me of a kid — innocent, eager and joyful."sursa: entertaiment weekly (news-briefs.ew.com)
Captain EO a fost cel de-al 15-lea film regizat de Francis Ford Coppola. Până la acesta, devenise deja celebru cu seria de filme "The Godfather" (partea I - 1972 şi a II-a - 1974), dar şi cu alte titluri importante: "The Conversation" (1974), "Apocalypse Now" (1979), "The Outsiders" (1983), iar în 1986 a regizat şi lung-metrajul "Peggy Sue Got Married". I-au trecut prin mână nume mari ale filmului american: Gene Hackman, Marlon Brando, Patrick Swayze, Nicolas Cage (care-i e şi nepot) etc-etc.
