This
journal was written by Joseph Pierson as a chronicle of his personal
experiences as director during the making of the independent feature
film EvenHand. All references to specific persons (including
cast and crew), places and incidents should be considered within
that subjective context and be regarded solely as the opinion of the
author. Several names have been changed or omitted to protect the
innocent and to avoid unnecessary conflict with the guilty.
