I Had A Mustache When I Was

Sometimes I've Felt That The Industry Has Typecast Me As A Certain Kind Of Character. But Then I Think All It Really Takes Is One Role, The Right Role, To Shake That Up And Change That Perception.

When You See Liana [liberato], Who At The Time Was 14, There Is An Inexperience And Innocence That You Can't Act And You Can't Fake.

I Had Invited 50 Or 60 Peers And Friends, Most Of Whom Were Parents, To See The Film [trust], And I Asked About The Last Scene. It Was Interesting Because It Was Split Right Down The Middle, 50/50. About Half The Audience Wanted It To End With The Very Emotional Scene Between Clive And Liana, And That Feeling Of Realization And Catharsis. And, The Other Half Were Adamant About Keeping That Last Scene.

It Was Really Interesting To Be Editing The Film [trust] In New York And Directing The Play In Chicago, And One Definitely Informed The Other. The Play Probably Benefitted More Because I Realized What Scenes Could Be Cut, And I Cut Those Scenes From The Play.

I Never Say Never, But I'm Really Enjoying The Freedom I'm Having Right Now.
