==Abandoned 1995 tour film==
The original live document of NIN's [[Self Destruct Touring Cycle]] (more specifically, the [[Further Down The Spiral Tour]]) was helmed by Simon Maxwell, director of the videos for "Hurt", "Eraser" , and the live video for "Wish". The footage was eventually rejected and Hi8 footage that had been shot concurrently by Jonathan Rach and Jeff Richter was compiled instead. Maxwell expounded on this in an interview [https://pantograph-punch.com/posts/interview-with-simon-maxwell]:
<blockquote>Yeah. I shot all this footage. This is a really funny story, actually. We shot all this footage, and put it all together, and sent it over to Trent, and.... I don’t know what was going on. But anyway… he didn’t like some of it. For various reasons. I have no idea why. So we cut three or four of the songs, and they were okay, and then… we didn’t hear from him anymore.
