You Just Have To Be Strong And Don't Be Stupid; Freedom Of Choice Is A Big Responsibility.

As An Actor, You Tell Part Of A Story. As A Writer, You Get More Of Telling That Story. But As A Director, They're Seeing The World Through Your Eyes.

Sometimes What Happens I Think Is That Actors Finish A Movie And They Go, Oh My God, I'm Never Going To Work Again, Even Big Huge Actors, And So They'll Take Something Thinking That Something Else Will Never Come Along.
