I stepped onto the deco set where the actors and crew were ready to continue the scene. Keaton took one look and pulled me aside. “What’s going on?” he said. I told him about the disastrous verdict and got no further than that before he got up and went to Amy Heckerling, the director, and said, loud enough for all to hear, “Okay, we’re calling it a wrap. Griffin has to get home.” What he did that day remains one of the kindest things anyone has ever done for me.
