In A Town Like Twin Peaks Noone

Script Is Not Finished Until It's Finished. There's Many Times, Partway Through A Film, When An Idea Comes, And I Say, "how Beautiful This Is. This Thing Was Not Complete And Look What's Happened, Look What's Come Along." And It Just Came Along At What Might Be Called A Strange Time Rather Than A Normal Time.

I Like Things That Go Into Hidden, Mysterious Places, Places I Want To Explore That Are Very Disturbing. In That Disturbing Thing, There Is Sometimes Tremendous Poetry And Truth.

Directors Who Have Inspired Me Include Billy Wilder, Federico Fellini, Lngmar Bergman, John Ford, Orson Welles, Werner Herzog, Stanley Kubrick, Alfred Hitchcock, Francis Ford Coppola And Ernst Lubitsch. In Art School, I Studied Painters Like Edward Hopper, Who Used Urban Motifs, Franz Kafka Is My Favorite Novelist. My Approach To Film Stems From My Art Background, As I Go Beyond The Story To The Sub-conscious Mood Created By Sound And Images.

We Only Dream Of Images We Already Have Inside Of Us.

I Always Say Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Is My Biggest Influence. But For Painters, I Like Many, Many Painters, But I Love Francis Bacon The Most, And Edward Hopper.
