I Was Once A Shameless, Full-time Dope

I've Always Been Interested In How To Present Something That Relates To Our Reality - Which Is Not Really... I Don't Even Know If Documentary Itself Does As Good A Job. It Has Its Own Problems In Trying To Get At The Reality Of The Situation.

I Think That In Some Cases, I've Made Films That Have A Sentimental Quality, At Least As Part Of The Film.

I Have My Ideas Of What A Good Documentary Is, But Drama Is A Different Animal Because You're Arranging Everything.

A Lot Of Times, I Relied On Connections Through My Agency, Just For Financing And Things Like That. Even When I'm Looking For A Million And A Half Dollars To Do A Small Film, There Can Always Be Hold-ups, Because It's A Large Amount Of Money For Some People, And It's A Small Amount Of Money For Other People. In Any Case, It's Significant Enough To Where You Have To Jump Through A Lot Of Hoops To Get It To Happen. Sometimes, The People Who Are Helping You Can Drop The Ball. And, Of Course, The Reason Agents Want You To Do Bigger Projects Is That They Make A Bigger Cut.

As I Do With Most Films, I Try And Find Some Music That You Could Use Throughout, Not Just A Sampling Of Lots Of Different Artists.
