There’s A Lot For Screenwriters To Steal

We’re All Children Of Kubrick, Aren’t We? Is There Anything You Can Do That He Hasn’t Done?

You Write Who You Are. But You Also Cheat, And Youwrite What You Want To Be. It's Embarrasing To Be The Guy Who Madethe Movie, Knowing You're Not Exactly Who You Want To Be.

No Matter How Many Times You Do It, You Don't Get Used To The Sadness - For Me At Least - Of Coming To The End Of A Film.

It's So Hard To Do Anything That Doesn't Owe Some Kind Of Debt To What Stanley Kubrick Did With Music In Movies. Inevitably, You're Going To End Up Doing Something That He's Probably Already Done Before. It Always Seem Like We're Falling Behind Whatever He Came Up With. "singin' In The Rain" (1952) In "a Clockwork Orange" (1971) - That Was The First Time I Became So Aware Of Music In Movies. So No Matter How Hard You Try To Do Something New, You're Always Following Behind.

I Always Had A Dream About Trying To Make A Movie That Had No Dialogue In It, That Was Just Music And Pictures. I Still Haven't Done It Yet, But I Tried To Get Close In The Beginning.
