		McKay created a fictitious story, assigning characters to actors and through a workshop with some 50 performers shaped the piece into a script.
		"We were trying to create a mosaic of characters," explained McKay, adding that he initially envisioned a story in which the different people were riding on a packed NYC subway train and we followed them into their own stories.
		It's a storyline that strikes even closer to home for McKay, a recent Brooklyn transplant from Manhattan who is grappling with the impact of a local development that will build a new basketball arena in the borough.

	interview with jim mckay, 5/99
		McKAY: My favorite project of the last year, along with "American Movie," is a short by Lisa Collins called "Tree Shade." We came in on the post-production on that film, helping out with funding and advice, etc. It is one of the smartest, funniest, and more stylish films I have ever seen.
		McKAY: I had very little luck on the festival circuit with "Lighthearted Nation." I think it was a difficult video because it was very slow and took a long time to get going for the viewer.
		McKAY: Massachusetts is obviously a documentary-friendly region, and that was reflected in the work we saw.

		Born Jim McManus, McKay laboriously worked his way up the local-market mill to join ABC at a time when the perennial also-ran network was staking out its predominance in the realm of televised sports.
		In addition to celebrating his professional life, Jim McKay: My World in My Words is also a loving paean to McKay's wife, Margaret Dempsey McManus.

	Amazon.ca: Everyday People: DVD: Jim McKay,Ron Butler,Reg E. Cathey,Stephen Henderson,Verno O. Hobson,Stephen ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Everyday People is writer/director Jim McKay's disappointingly pedantic follow-up to the beautifully restrained and naturalistic drama Our Song.
		The film does get at the complexity of the issues involved in the closing of a Brooklyn neighborhood restaurant, and there are a couple of interactions between the characters that ring true (including the particularly touching and true-to-life stab at romance between struggling single-mother Joleen [Bridget Barkan] and college-bound Samel [Billah Greene]).
		While it's impossible to deny McKay's good intentions, the filmmaker seems more interested in making his political points and subverting stereotypes than in presenting his characters as fully fleshed-out human beings or in telling a believable story.
