I remember an interview with Alan Alda when they played an outtake where
Morgan gets a little emotional in a take -- and has to stop and goes
quietly, "Shit."
I remember that scene, and he came right back and nailed it completely.
Alan is incredibly moved, and says how he loves this guy.  It's one of
those special moments.
