If You Write A Movie For Roger

It's A Mixed Crowd At The Dogs - Black, White, Hispanic - But To Walt They All Look Like Jackie Gleason. Heavyset Guys With Big Plans And Polyester Souls.

I Never Actually Do Rehearsals. That's One Of The Reasons That I Write Those Bios And If I Can Meet With The Actors I'll Meet Them Or Talk To Them On The Phone. What I Want Is For Them To Come On Set Knowing Their Lines And Knowing Who The Character Is.

Basically, If You Could Get A Good Trailer Out Of The Script, Roger Had No Objection To You Making A Really Good Movie. He Liked It If You Did. He Liked The More Cleverness And Ingenuity You Could Bring To It. He Just Wasn't Going To Give You Any More Money.

I Probably Wouldn't Have Done As Many As I Did In One Year, Which I Did When I Was Trying To Raise Money.

I See Very Small Movies Being Financed By Crowdfunding. If You're A Well-known Actor Or Celebrity Of Some Sort, You Can Probably Raise Between One And Two Million. I Don't Have That Kind Of Cult [following].
