For A Filmmaker, It's A Rare Chance

I Find It Hard To Deliver Straightforward Things.

Only One Time In My Career I Had That Feeling [that This Is Not Gonna Get Made], It Was For This Movie [life Of Pi]. It Was Right Before We Started The Physical Pre-production. I Pre-visualized The Whole Ocean Part Before We Made The Movie, I Was That Prepared. At One Point They Seemed To Want To Drop It Because It Was Really Risky. The Budget We Proposed Was A Lot Higher Than They Expected, They Wanted To [drop It]. After All, It's A Philosophical Book And A Literature Property, It's Not Batman.

What Is Really A Stretch To Me Is To Make Quick Decisions.

I'm Not A Romantic. In Life I Didn't Have Much Experience With Romance.

When I See Something I Like, That's All That Counts. What They Use, How They Get There, I Never Bother Them.
