You Really Can't Take A Cat And

I Think I'd Be In An Entirely Different Business If It Were Easy.

You See The Movie With The Music And The Editing And All The Parts That You Weren't There For When It Was Being Filmed, And You Really Appreciate All The Names That Are Scrolling By. You Realize That You Accomplished So Much.

I Do Feel That If It's Not On The Page, There's No Hope Of It Getting To The Stage. You Really Can't Take A Cat And Turn It Into A Dog, Or Try And Get Lemons Off An Apple Tree, Or What Have You. Sometimes There's This Real Naïveté That People Possess, Where They Want You To Infuse A Scene With A Certain Quality, And It's Like An Apology. "i Read The Script, Didn't You? What's The Agenda Here?"

I Think That Directing Is The Ultimate Martyred Task Of Filmmaking, That It Has Nobility To It. It Takes Three Years To Make A Film, For The Most Part. I Think It Requires The Attentiveness Of A Mother Hen.

I Grew Up Loving Horses. I Was Relatively Obsessed, Starting With My Rocking Horse At Age 2, All The Way Through My Painting And Drawing Phase.
