It's A Sad And Beautiful World.

I Even Think The Commercial Element Of New American Directors Is Really Fertile Right Now. There Are A Lot Of Filmmakers With Very Particular Visions, Like Sofia Coppola And Wes Anderson And P.t. Anderson And Alexander Payne And Peter Sollett And Harmony Korine And Vincent Gallo. At Least They're Making Films That They Choose To Make, And They're On Their Own. That's Positive To Me. This Is Not A Dead Period For American Cinema At All.

I Didn't Get The Degree Because In My Last Year, For My Thesis Film I Made A Feature Called Permanent Vacation And They'd Given Me A Scholarship, The Louis B Mayer Fellowship And They Made A Mistake.

Sometimes I Make Films About Scenes Other Filmmakers Would Leave Out, So I Just Make The Film Out Of All The Things They Wouldn't Put In. Poetry Allows You To Do This More Than Prose, For Example.

Good Acting Is About Reacting, Not Tryingto Express Something, But Reacting To A Situation As The Character.i Don't Like Acting Acting.

I Find It Very Odd That The Amendment About The Right To Bear Arms, Laws That Were Written So Long Ago, Still Pertain And Don't Get Adjusted Properly. Because The Right To Bear Arms Doesn't Mean Automatic Weaponry Designed Specifically For Human Combat.
