The more I listen to him the more I realize that he is a genius!

[@samwallaceart288]

This is a tremendous talk. Thanks for uploading these.

Timing a screenplay--brilliant. Many speakers don't even time their rehearsals--and careful timing helps you avoid disaster.

wow I'll now look at the Godfather in a whole new way. The train in the background is also his mind going haywire

Listening to him speak was just as entertaining and breathtaking as watching the godfatjer. I could listen to him for hours
