an aussie missing the dvd special features

"When I was a kid, I watched hours of those behind the scenes features you'd find on DVDs. I'd watch these artists grinding and pulling all nighters and eating at their desks... it looked like hell, but at the end of the day everyone was smiling. They were working hard and they were making art. I remember thinking 'damn, I want to do that''"
