CHALFANT: Everybody knew the night that the New York Times was gonna come. On that night George went around and talked to each of us separately. I don’t know what he said to anybody else, but he said to me: “Now, just be sure to be clear.” Brilliant! Because one of the things I pride myself on is clarity. And I thought, What?? God DAMN it. You want clear, I’ll give you clear. He must have said exactly the right thing, because each of us hit the stage on fire.
