I Had To Find My Way Of

For A Filmmaker, It's A Rare Chance To Do A Personal Film On A Big Canvas.

I'm Just A Pretty Regular Dad.

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.

I Feel That Everyone Has A Hulk Inside, And Each Of Our Hulks Is Both Scary And, Potentially, Pleasurable. That's The Scariest Thing About Them.

If There's Something That Can Be Formulated, Regulated, Give You Security, Then Nobody Would Lose Money. Every Movie Would Be Successful. And That's Certainly Not The Case.
