"We had to shoot the movie in five days around Easter 1967 (no money for more footage: $2,500 was the budget; and I had to return to school in Texas after the Easter weekend); so time pressure and the need to make every 28¢-foot of film good drove Mcbride, Mike Wadleigh the cinematographer, and me like maniacs- we all had to BECOME David Holzman and never slip out of David or we'd lose the movie. For example, Wadleigh, interviewing the Thunderbird lady; I choked and couldn't say a word, altogether stunned by the woman (and she was driving off), but Wadleigh took over the questions- and he improvised perfectly as David; the switch from me to Wadleigh off-camera goes unnoticed by audiences."

-L. M. Kitt Carson, 1970
