David,
This is super helpful and yet more inspiring. Keep the great work and wishing you more success in your future work.
BTW, I'll try to watch Black Luck on Amazon Prime. I also love the subject of the hitman and wanted to make something about this character in Central/Eastern Europe. Mostly to add an exotic element to it, but also it's an area I've go to travel a lot in the past few years and made a few contacts and I just think cinematically it could look great.
I read some of the review comments on Amazon Prime on Black Luck. Mostly around hitman being a cliche topic. Which is what I'm struggling with right now. How to approach it in a new way. Some of your reviewers said you approached the storytelling in a new way, so I'm looking forward to see if I can pick something up from how you did it.
Cheers,
Salim
