The Dark Comedies Tend To Be In

Silent Is About Needing To Make A Scene Shorter By Having Physical Things To Cut To. That Way, You Can Manipulate A Character To The Other Side Of The Room. But, If They Say The Wrong Thing, It Might Locate That Action In A Particular Part Of The Scene. It's A Mechanical Need.

Casting The Locals Is My Primary Concern Because All The Other Things You Assume Will Be Manageable.

Once You're Directing, You're Kind Of In A Certain Mode, Where You're Taking Whatever Is On The Page And Forming It Into The Film That You Think It Might Want To Be. So Whether It's My Writing Or Not, I Still Try To Work With It In The Same Way.

I Think That In Some Cases, I've Made Films That Have A Sentimental Quality, At Least As Part Of The Film.

I'm Usually Trying To React To What The Actors Are Coming Up With. And Then The Environment, And Then The Story.
