![“I had never done a Director's Cut narration on Beaches so I did in time for the release of the DVD. It was a great visit and I do a whole-behind-the-scenes thing and I tell stories about Bette [Mudler] and Barbara Hershey and everybody and that was fun. It made me cry again.” quote by Garry Marshall](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/e30/garry-marshall-12551_barbara_i-had-never-done-a-director-s-cut-narrat_66832.jpg)
