Uncharted Island Discovery Changes Film Direction
Zelman
What location, Carl?! You're supposed to be shooting on the back lot!
[learning that Carl has hired a ship to get to a location for his picture]
Carl Denham

I've come into possession of a map. The sole surviving record of an uncharted island. A place that was thought to exist only in myth. Until now...
Zelman
Whoa, Carl, slow down.
