So Far, At Least, I Haven't Found

Some People See Me As Dissecting My Characters In Some Kind Of Heartless, Coldblooded, Analytical Way, When In Truth Making These Movies Is A Passionate, Intensely Emotional Experience For Me. I'm Detached From The Characters Only To The Degree That I Have To Be In Order To Write Honestly About Them.

Compromise Is Part And Parcel Of Making A Movie. It's A Question Of The Kinds Of Compromises That You Have To Make.

What Makes Me Put Pen To Paper? You Know, That's The Million-dollar Question. I've Been Writing Since I've Been Reading. It's Not A Question I Think That's Even Meant To Be Answered, But It's Something You Always Seek To Discover The Answer To. And The Process Of Filmmaking Is One Of Discovery, And Self-discovery At That. Pleasure... It's Not Exactly What I Would Call Fun, But It's Absorbing.

All I Mean Is, I'm Not The Kind Of Audience Comedy Directors Want At A Test Screening Because I Seldom Laugh, And If I Do, It's Not Very Loud. That Doesn't Mean I Don't Like The Movie.

Like Everything, What Compels One To Put Pen To Paper Is A Great Question.
