It's Not Exactly An Interview That's Going

I'm Very, Very Serious About What I Do. I Think There Are A Lot Of People Out There Sort Of Thinking It's Anybody's Game. You Know, "you Pick Up A Camera And You Make A Movie." My Experiences Over The Years Have Taught Me There's A Lot More Than That To Making A Film - There's Also Getting The Film Seen, And All Kinds Of Complex Realities.

That's Probably The Biggest Secret Of Acting: If The Actor Believes It Themselves, They Can Make You Believe It.

The Director Is The Captain Of The Ship, Without Question. No Matter What Their Talent Or Energy Level Is, Everyone On The Crew Has All Eyes On The Captain. If They Come In Going, "i Don't Know. Maybe We'll Do This. Maybe We'll Do That," You've Got 10 Days To Shoot And They Don't Care What You're Doing.

"i'm Going To Show You I Haven't Given You Permission Because Clearly You're Not Grown Up Enough To Understand That, Not Having Given You Permission, You Can't Just Come Look In My House." And I Won't Know If They're Coming And Looking Or Not... So I Put A Piece Of Tape Over It.

There Is A Wealth Of Knowledge To Be Understood From Others' Work, Don't Get Me Wrong, And When I Do Stumble Upon Others' Work, It's Not Lost On Me.
