Key 2nd A.D.- WILD ORCHID - Visions, p.d.g. - 1989 Director: Zalman King, UPM: Roberto Bakker, 1st A.D.: James Dyer

Right after we finished "Johnny Handsome", Jim got a movie going to Brazil, "Wild Orchid" directed by Zalman King. He asked me to come along as his 2nd Assistant Director. I was thrilled of course. We were to have Brazilian Assistant Directors as well, that would share in the responsibilities there. We spent 4 months in Brazil going to Salvador, Bahia and Rio de Janeiro. We had crewmembers from England, U.S. and the majority from Brazil. What a great opportunity and experience! I learned quite a bit of Portuguese and got to know the country.
