Anytime I Make A Movie, I Really

The Movies I Make Tend Not To Be Quite Reality But The Characters Are Inspired By Real People And They're Always Very Personal.

Some Of The Ideas Are Kind Of Inspired By The Songs, And I Always Want To Use Music To Tell The Story And Give The Movie A Certain Kind Of Mood. That's Always Essential To Me.

The Thing With Animation Is That You Record The Actors Like A Radio Show And Then The Animators Become Actors In Their Own Way Because It's Their Job To Take This Puppets And Make Them Seem Alive. They Bring Their Own Personalities To The Way They Move These Puppets.

Sometimes When You're Editing A Movie, You Have The Thing That You Don't Expect - Which Is You Make It Longer And Longer As You Go Along.

I Just Now Put [robert Altman] Down Feeling Heartbroken But Happily And Deeply Inspired. . . . Wonderful.
