The Beauty Of Life Is In Small

Nothing Is Original. Steal From Anywhere That Resonates With Inspiration Or Fuels Your Imagination.

Those Of Us Who Make Films Try To Make Something That We're Feeling And That We Would Like. Then We Just Hope An Audience Responds The Same Way. It's Very Important To Have The Electrical Circuit Made, But I Don't Have Control Over How People Feel When They Flip The Switch. So The Whole Idea Of Marketing Research And Test Screenings Is Just Foreign To Me.

I Realized, "gee, You're Making The Same Film Over And Over Here." I Just Kept Making Them For My Own Amusement, But Also With This Thought In My Head That I Could Collect Enough Songs To Make An Album Out Of It. I Am Attracted To Non-dramatic Moments In Life. The Idea Of A Coffee Break Is Not Something You'd Think Of As Being An Important Part Of Your Day, So These Shorts Were Like Little Free Zones In Which We Could Just Play Around.

I Always Think The Sex Pistols And The Ramones As Very, Very Important Because They Stripped Things Down.

I Have A Real Respect For Tobacco As A Substance, And It Just Seems Very Funny How The Western Attitude Is, "wow, People Are Addicted To This, Think Of All The Money You Can Make Off It."
