00:00 You know, Ian was a teacher in the first one, and the second one he had moved up to principal.
00:06 And now Ian's retired, because Ian and John are the same age.
00:13 We're in our 60s.
00:15 And that's what you do.
00:17 And I think he's adjusting well to that.
00:20 Paris is off to NYU.
00:23 Maybe only a year or so has gone by from the time we saw the family last.
00:29 We're coming back here to Greece for a special family visit.
00:35 And the whole family's coming, which is fantastic.
00:41 It's like people you go to high school with, and you leave home, and you go back home once
00:48 a year or every few years, and you bump into those people, and 20 or 30 years have passed,
00:54 and you just pick right up.
00:56 So it's like that.
01:01 So when she said, "I'm going to direct this one," it was not a shock to me, because I
01:05 already went down that road with her.
01:09 But the one thing that changed since then, she's like pro now.
01:18 She knows what she wants.
01:20 She's not trying to figure anything out.
01:25 She's telling the cameraman what to do, and the guy with the sound, and us actors, and
01:31 she's acting also.
01:33 So it's a 10-ring circus, not a three-ring circus.
01:37 And just watching her do it now for...
01:41 I've been here for a month or longer, and I haven't seen her even get close to cracking.
01:48 I crack, and I'll yell, "Hey, we need everybody's attention!"
01:53 And she'll just calmly say, "I'm going to need everyone's attention right now."
01:58 And I don't know how she does that.
01:59 I don't know how she doesn't go berserk, but she's really good at it.
02:06 Chula and Ian are just about where you think they would be in their life.
02:12 There's not a lot of changes.
02:14 They're still in love.
02:15 They love each other, and it's a really healthy relationship.
02:20 They still laugh at each other's jokes, which is nice.
02:23 Paris is a little bit of a problem, just like any young girl would be who's in her first
02:31 or second year of college.
02:32 A big worry for the parents.
02:35 And there's always some kind of love involved with your kid when they're away, and that
02:41 love might be coming here, too, on a trip to Greece.
02:46 So that's kind of exciting.
