But It's Just That The Whole Country

The Thing Is, Right Now The Films Don't Need To Be Overtly Political To Be About Our Times. We Also Need Films That Are Just Human, That Are About People. People Need That, Too. It's Like We Need To Reconnect To What It Is To Be Human. Not Just What Our Political Situation Is. That's Not What I'm Thinking About Exclusively. Human Content Is Needed Again, As It Was In The '70s. I Think Films Were More Human Than They've Been Since Then.

Hollywood Films Have Become A Cesspool Of Formula And It's Up To Us To Try To Change It... I Feel Like A Preacher! But It's Really True. I Feel Personally Responsible For The Future Of American Cinema. Me Personally.

I'd Love To Be A Director-for-hire And Get A Nice Paycheck And Captain One Of Those Big Ships, But I Think Studios Mistakenly Think I Want To Write What I Direct - Which I Don't. I Write Out Of Desperation, Because I Never Get A Script I Like, Other Than "nebraska." It's A Matter Of: What's The Screenplay? Is It Intelligent? Is It Human? I Don't Care What Genre, What Scale. I'm Here For The Movies.

A Book Suggests A Whole World And Story That I Could Have Never Thought Of In A Million Years.

I Like Action Films, Not Exclusively, But I Like Samurai Films. I Like Westerns. Not So Much War Pictures, But A Few. I Like Kinetic Cinema.
