I Still Dislike Phones, Yeah!

An Interviewer Once Asked Me To Discuss My Collaboration With Elmer Bernstein, And Precisely Why I Chose To Work With Him. My First Thought Was: How Could I Not Work With Elmer, When I Had The Chance? Simply Put, He's The Best There Is-the Very Best.

I Loved The Idea Of Seeing The World Through A Boy's Eyes.

I Can't Really Envision A Time When I'm Not Shooting Something.

You Can Be Born-again And Believe In Jesus, Believe In Jesus' Ideas And Try To Live Them Out, Without Becoming Totally Intolerant Of Other People.

I've Been Extremely Lucky To Work With Elmer Bernstein, Howard Shore Over The Years, But I've Always Imagined Films With My Own Scores, Because I Don't Come From That World Or That Period Of Filmmaking. And So How Could I Make Up My Own Score On A Film Like This Where It Isn't Necessarily Made Up Of Popular Music From The Radio Or The Period; It Isn't Necessarily Classical Music. But What If It's Modern Symphonic Music?
