There was something very emotional for me when I thought, “Well, I’m really doing that.” At least in the form of a book if not a film, I am telling the story.
It became very emotional for me thinking that I really am doing what [Duncan] dreamed of – and maybe that will be translated into a film – but I am telling the story and I’m fulfilling that wish that was so poignant because it never felt egotistical to me as much as it felt [as if Duncan were] saying, “The most amazing thing happened to me. You have to hear this.” And it wasn’t for [Duncan's] own ego as much as this feeling that he had lived a dream, a story that was hard to believe, and he wanted people to hear it.
