Cinema Really Lends Itself Well To Big,

What Science-fiction Premises Do Is It Gives You A "what-if" Prism To Look At The Contemporary World With A Wack On The Side Of The Head.

I Think A Badly Crafted, Great Idea For A New Film With A Ton Of Spelling Mistakes Is Just 100 Times Better Than A Well-crafted Stale Script.

The Actors Are The Greatest Executors Of Tone In A Film. They're The Most Important Cinematic Component.

You Just Never Know When You're Living In A Golden Age.

I Don't Think So Much About Verbal Comedy. I Always Think About Visual Comedy. I Was Raised Watching Silents, And I'm Always Thinking About How To Make Cinema, Not Good Talking - Although I Want Good Talking. I'm Much More Interested In Framing, Composition, And Orchestration Of Bodies In Space, And So Forth. My Goal Is Always What Chuck Jones Wanted His Warner Brothers Cartoons To Be, Which Was If You Turn Down The Sound, You Could Still Tell What's Going On. I Think If You Watch Most Of My Films With The Sound Off, You Could Still Tell What's Going On.
