...never won, an Oscar would prove a lot, and she wanted people to know that. "I feel like if I do this, I can retire at any time I want," she tells me.

I basically went to the crew coach, Harry Parker, who is still around, and said, “Can I get names of alumni to ask them for money to make the movie?” He said no, so I went into the boat house at night and copied the names of alumni down from the pictures there.
