Toronto Film Festival: Kevin Smith returns with 'Tusk': 'I was done and out'
At a key moment in the film, the pounding drums and marching band horns of Fleetwood Mac’s “Tusk” kick in. (Honestly, try to say the title and not wind up with the song in your head.) Smith said he wrote the script while listening to the song, but had resigned himself to the fact that it might be too hard to license.
As it turned out, it was “not difficult, just expensive,” as Smith noted that at around $200,000 to use, the song “Tusk” was more than what effects wizard Robert Kurtzman had for making the actual "Tusk" walrus suit.
And so now following “Tusk,” Kevin Smith is busier than ever, writing his own rules, and giddily reenergized as an artist, storyteller and filmmaker.
