A Director Is The Ringmaster Of A

It Was The Man's Dream, And His Inspiring Attempt To Make Them Come True That Remain Important.

I've Been Offered Lots Of Movies. There's Always Some Actor Who's Doing A Project And Would Like To Have Me Do It. But You Look At The Project And Think, 'gee, There Are A Lot Of Good Directors Who Could Do That.' I'd Like To Do Something Only I Can Do.

I Associate My Motion Picture Career More With Being Unhappy And Scared, Or Being Under The Gun, Than With Anything Pleasant.

I Always Knew What I Thought The Theme Was, The Core, In One Word. In 'the Godfather' It Was Succession. In 'the Conversation' It Was Privacy. In 'apocalypse' It Was Morality.

As Long As I Can Make Lots Of Money In Other Businesses, I'll Continue To Subsidize My Own Work.
