That's JUST what I pictured. Stick to your guns as much as possible creatively. There were people interested in the film, who could have brought a lot of money to the production, but they wanted rewrites. Also, everything you hear about how difficult it is to do this, it's much more difficult than that. If I could go back in time, I'd focus on the logistical aspect, because once you're in production, it's not the creative process anymore.
Planning is key.
