He projected it occasionally for people who needed it most: a young director drowning in notes from investors, a tired film editor who’d been told to “make it pop,” a teacher trying to explain to students why art sometimes must refuse the ledger. He never charged. “Exclusive,” he would say with a crooked smile, meaning both privileged and private.
