That Was Liquid Football

I Did Not Become Successful In My Work Through Embracing Or Engaging In Celebrity Culture. I Never Signed Away My Privacy In Exchange For Success.

What I Don't Like Is Dance Music Or Hip Hop Or Any Of That Sort Of Thing.

I Think I'm Good With Actors. I Like Directing Actors. I Also Like To Show Up And Just Do An Acting Gig. Where I'm Just A Hired Gun, I Don't Have To Have An Opinion On Anything.i Never Got Involved In All This Stuff Because I Wanted To Control Stuff; I Got Involved In Writing And Producing Because I Wasn't Getting Interesting Acting Gigs. In A Way I'm Grateful That I Didn't Get Interesting Roles, Because It Made Me Pull My Finger Out And Do Some Work.

The British Often Shy Away From Any Cinematic Interpretation Of Real Sex. They Sometimes Have What I Call "subtle Sex," Which Is Really Introspective And Has Soft Music In The Background. Either That Or It's Played For Comedy. The British Are Kind Of Hung Up About Sex. They Find It Kind Of Titillating And They Make Jokes About It Because They're Nervous.

Comedy Can Be Silly And Gross And Offensive, As Long As There's Sort Of A Point. You Can Make A Joke That, On The Face Of It, Is Racist. Ostensibly Someone Can Appear To Be Racist, But If You Know You're Making A Point About Race, And Not Just Being Pig-headed, Then You Can Do That. I Think Some People Who Don't Understand Comedy Will Have A Knee-jerk Reaction To Some Stuff, And Will Always Be Offended By It Because They Don't Understand It. Some People React To It In A Vociferous Way, Which Is Unsophisticated, But There's Always Going To Be Those People Out There.
