It Is True That The Movie Is

What's Most Insidious About Mtv Is That It Commodifies Precisely Those Things That Young People Believe Are Subversive. In Other Words, Subversity Itself Has Become A Commodity. It's All A Way To Trick Young People Into Believing That There's Something Unique About What They Do, But This Is All Completely A Corporately Designed Maneuver.

When Part Of What You're Trying To Get At Is The Truth Hidden Under A Taboo, Or When You Want To Nail A Hypocrisy, Laughter Is A Very Useful Tool. I Want To Show The Painful Side Of Existence, But There Is No Question I Also Want To Make People Laugh.

In Particular, People Have Trouble Understanding Where I Stand In Relation To My Characters, And Very Often This Gets Reduced To Me Making Vicious Fun Of Them.

What Makes Me Put Pen To Paper? You Know, That's The Million-dollar Question. I've Been Writing Since I've Been Reading. It's Not A Question I Think That's Even Meant To Be Answered, But It's Something You Always Seek To Discover The Answer To. And The Process Of Filmmaking Is One Of Discovery, And Self-discovery At That. Pleasure... It's Not Exactly What I Would Call Fun, But It's Absorbing.

And That's Just What I'm Saying. I Would Never Want To Be Like Certain People, Who Change The Way They Dress, Go Out In Disguise, Wear A Big Floppy Hat And Dark Shades. I Would Hate That.
