I Think We Are Seeing A Radical

I'm Fascinated By Documentaries, To Begin With. Because Of The Nature Of Television, As Opposed To Theatrical, Documentaries Can Be In This Long Form And Take You On A Journey.

I'm Emotionally Invested In Every Movie That I Do, Period, Because You've Got To Make That Commitment. You're Spending A Year, 18 Months Of Your Life Doing It. I'm Invested In All Those Kinds Of Pieces. Most Of The Films I've Had In My Career Have Never Tested Well. I Got Lucky That Sometimes I Got Supported By Studios - Or, At Least If Not Supported, Tolerated.

You Don't Always Have To Have The Ending, But You Want To Have A Satisfactory Conclusion.

I Don't Know That You Can Do An Absurdist Film And Just Have Everybody Embrace It In Terms Of Filling Out Cards. I Just Don't Think It Happens. So You Have To Prepare An Audience.

When I Began To Think About The Head Of The Family, The Storyteller, The Rise Of Television Which Became The New Storyteller, The Break-up Of The American Family As An Idea And Then Avalon Came.
