Violence Is Not The Answer, It Doesn’t

The Tone Of The Picture And The Atmosphere Was In My Head And In My Blood In A Way Once I'd Decided To Make The Picture. I Had To Find My Way Through That To Choose, Select, Emphasise Certain Visual Elements And Sound.

When I Was Growing Up, I Don't Remember Being Told That America Was Created So That Everyone Could Get Rich. I Remember Being Told It Was About Opportunity And The Pursuit Of Happiness. Not Happiness Itself, But The Pursuit.

The More You See, Especially Being Young, The More You See The Past, The More You Can Draw Upon That And The More You Can Make The Present And The Future. It's How You Process The Past And At Oftentimes In The Picture, There Are References To Certain Imagery From Certain Pictures, And Certain Novels.

I Still Dislike Phones, Yeah!

Basically, You Make Another Movie, And Another, And Hopefully You Feel Good About Every Picture You Make. And You Say, 'my Name Is On That. I Did That. It's Ok.' But Don't Get Me Wrong, I Still Get Excited By It All. That, I Hope, Will Never Disappear.
