00:30And that's what we did, because they did it.
00:31They're looking at not only my father in comedy, this is the mother of my two kids.
00:35This is the father of one.
00:37When they were working, I remember sometimes hearing laughter, sometimes hearing raised
00:42voices, never knowing if that was real or them rehearsing something.
00:46We don't know, Ben.
00:47That's why we're so messed up.
00:51Your dad documented everything.
00:54Letters.
00:55Movies.
00:55Tapes.
00:56They're not superstars.
00:58Right.
00:58They're just performers who are married with kids and trying to do their best with both
01:04worlds.
01:06Your father was a kind of a saint.
01:09Your mom kind of scared me a little bit.
01:11She'd look at me and I could tell her, she knows you're up to no good.
01:14I see dad working so hard and mom just letting it flow.
01:19When you tell it, it's not funny, and if I tell it, it becomes funny.
01:23Ouch.
01:24Can I read this?
01:25My desperate need to tie what we do on stage with when we're together has created the gap
01:31between us.
01:32My mom wanted to be happy, independent of performing.
01:43This was harder for my dad because he had such a need for approval.
01:46I see that parallel with your dad.
01:49You're trying to balance being a director, an actor, but also just a father.
01:53Success can get in the way of marriage.
01:56We had to stop doing this act.
01:58They have this incredible marriage, and I wanted to understand how they did it.
02:04This is all of the truth of our lives.
02:07Whatever you say, I'll hear you forever.
02:08You'll never be lost.
