When I Was Really Young I Didn't

Sometimes People Can't Afford To Work For You, Or They're Not Interested Or Available, And You Hate To Have Written The Whole Movie With Somebody In Mind And Not Get Them.

For Me The Writing, When I'm Going To Direct It Myself, Is Really Just The First Draft, And I Don't Change It Very Much; I Only Change It On Average About Two Lines Per Movie.

I'm Never At A Loss For New Projects.

When I Was Really Young I Didn't Know That There Was Such A Thing As A Screenwriter. I Wrote Stories.

The Hardest Thing About Movies Is Doing Take 12, 13, And 14, And Finding New Ways To Do The Same Lines. So The Early Takes Are Actually Easier And I Think There's More Surprises In Them.
