When I was a kid, my friend’s dad called waking up really early getting up “before sparrow’s fart”. That’s what I recall as I stand on location for Broken Sky Picture’s CALVIN MARSHALL at 4:30am. I think only God is awake at this hour. Which explains why so many Godly folk in history got up this early to pray. Odd that I call it getting up at an ungodly hour. Hmmm.
This morning, through the darkness a light shone through! The single best thing on a movie set (besides free cocaine): CRAFT SERVICES! I had the best breakfast burrito! Thank you, God!
Sparrow’s Fart

Did you get a free beverage as well?
Farts & cocaine! Hilarious.
Let’s just hope there were large quantities of coffee to go with all that early Godliness.
Ungodly hour comes from the fact that the first thing God did in creation was say “Let there be light” so if you get up before it’s light out, then it must be an ungodly hour.
I just made that up, but it sounds plausible, right?
