Okay, turns out it's not the source of his speech against altering movies (that one's from five years later), but he does say this in it which seems a little hilarious in hindsight; Quote: Special effects are just a tool, a means of telling a story. People have a tendency to confuse them as an end to themselves. A Special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing.

Actually, that's my handwriting. mom originally had written very lightly in pencil, -in case she eventually decided to re-record the tape, a bit of a habit of hers, at the time- and, decades later, it had begun to fade towards incomprehensibility. well, the cassette had certainly turned out to be a keeper, so it was about time it finally got permanently marked... |

Ah, thanks, I can totally see someone like that saying that and then changing their mind to make more money
