I Think You Get In Trouble If

I Think Casting Is Really Important. Finding The Right Sensibility For The Right Part Is An Art In Itself. If You're Off There, You Make It Harder On Yourself As A Director. And It's Fun To Work That Out With The Actors. I Don't Think There's Any Magic To Directing Actors. It's Very Instinctual. Working With Actors Is Really One Of My Favorite Creative Moments Of The Whole Process, And The Most Fun, Because It's Collaborative. I Spend A Lot Of Time Rehearsing. I'm Very Rehearsal-oriented, Probably Because I Have Some Background In Theater. I Like Knowing What Will Work Beforehand.

I'd Be Fine To Make Movies And Have Them Never Come Out. But You Have To Deal With The Business Side. You Can't Get Too Emotionally Invested, Because Again, You've Got No Control. There's Going To Be Some Huge Film Out That Everyone Goes To, And It Probably Won't Be Mine.

I Always Sensed Instinctively From The Earliest Age That I Was Being Lied To.

Definitely My Generation And Beyond Grew Up In Theaters And When You Make A Film You Think Of The Theatrical Experience. You Think Of That Big Screen In The Darkened Theater With A Lot Of People, So That's Always The Thought Behind It. If That's The Case, It's Nice If That's Available. That's Great, But I Don't Really Mind If They're Watching Films On A Plane. I Don't Mind. Anybody Who Just Wants To Watch A Movie, I Can't Complain. If That's The Way They're Going To Watch Them, That's The Way They Watch Them. Who Am I To Judge?

I Think You Get In Trouble If You Make Experimental Big Studio Films.
