MOONSTRUCK Behind the Scenes Part 7: The Director

This is probably the most uncomfortable Alan Seawright has ever been. We're posting a video that David Sant (BTS writer/director/editor) made where most of the cast and crew of Moonstruck praise Alan and tell him he's good at things. Aside from being absolutely flustered that this makes him look like a self-aggrandizing pr*#&, Alan's just uncomfortable receiving genuine praise at all, especially from people he respects.
