$\"monkey\"$ <\/a><\/p>\n

Nothing will ever take away the memory of the absolute terror of seeing those flying monkeys on television\u00a0from behind my mom\u2019s big green chair in our living room. I was about seven years old and hid behind the chair when the lady on the bicycle took Toto! Flying monkeys win the movie all time terror award! Earlier this year I had the opportunity to tape a brief interview for a\u00a0 Pre-Oscar Montage directed by Bennett Miller (Capote)<\/a> in the very sound studio on the Sony (former MGM) lot here in Culver City. Shudder!<\/p>\n
