If You Read The Good Reviews You

Filmmaking Isn’t If You Can Just Strap On A Camera Onto An Actor, And Steadicam, And Point It At Their Face, And Follow Them Through The Movie, That Is Not What Moviemaking Is, That Is Not What It’s About. It’s Not Just About Getting A Performance. It’s Also About The Psychology Of The Cinematic Moment, And The Psychology Of The Presentation Of That, Of That Window.

Hollywood Is Great. I Also Think It's Stupid And Small-minded And Shortsighted.

The Thing Is, That Great Actors Are Everywhere. They're Everywhere. They're Doing Good Parts On Television. They're Doing Television Commercials. They're Doing Local Theater. There Are So Few Opportunities.

Entertainment Has To Come Hand In Hand With A Little Bit Of Medicine. Some People Go To The Movies To Be Reminded That Everything's Okay. I Don't Make Those Kinds Of Movies. That, To Me, Is A Lie. Everything's Not Okay.

I Want People To Flourish. I Want Them To Walk Away From The Experience Going, "that's What It Should Be Like."
