How Many People Didn't Get A Part

I Got So Good At Writing To A Budget, My Brain Was Restricting Myself. I'd Write, "it's A Stormy Night." Then I'd Cross Out Stormy. I'd Write: "it's A Calm Night." Then I'd Cross Out Night. It's Noon. Because You Know How Much Night Costs. You Know How Much Rain Costs. Nothing Comes Free In Movies.

Most Entertainment Is Trying To Get You. It's Tested, Like Toothpaste.

In The Course Of My Movies, The Financing And The Releasing Were Always The Tough Part. Because I Loved The Creative, I Loved The Writing, I Loved The Making Of It. Because I Guess, I Never Had The Giant Blockbuster, I Never Got That Sort Of Ease For The Next One. So The Next One Was Always, "how Am I Going To Do This?" And That Thing Was Sort Of Always The Thing That Made Me A Little Chickenshit To Go Into The Next One. The Writing Of It Was Great And The Making Of It Was Great, But How Am I Going To Release This Thing And Am I Going To Find A Studio?

In The Beginning Of Any Career, In Every Job, People Are Always Forcing You To The Middle.
