There Is No Shortcut To Grieving.

I Was A Voracious Reader And The Library Fed My Curiosity, Imagination And My Soul. I Read By The Shelf - Biographies, Fantasy - All And Everything Fed My Dreams. Then As An Adult Whenever I Would Go On Location The First Thing We Would Do As A Family Is Sign Up At The Closest Library. Not Only Would We Find Books, But What Was Happening In That Town, Because The Library Is The Head Of The Community.

When I Grew Up In The Church, We Were Praying Because The Communists Were Going To Come Over And Hang You Upside Down On A Cross, And I So Wanted To Be A Good Person, And I Had These Rosary Beads That I Would Sleep With Every Night, And I Just Wanted The Blessed Virgin To Be On My Side.

I'd Have Conversations With The Camera Crew About What Was Going On In The Scene, So That They Were Prepared To Shoot It. I Love The Fact That When You Work, You Create This Tribe.

I Always Think That The Difference Between Film And Theater Is Like The Difference Between Masturbation And Making Love. Because, In Film, You Just Have To Get One Moment Right; You're Practically By Yourself. And In Theater, You Actually Have To Have A Relationship With The Audience.

I Think You Have To Be Ready To Switch Gears And Go With The Team As A Director, As Opposed To Superimposing Your Own Strict Idea Of The Story. There Are Very Few Directors That Can Micromanage And Still Come Out With Something That's Living And Breathing On A Page. Wes Anderson Is One Of Those.
