You See The Movie With The Music

I Bought Into The Myth That You Are Not Complete Without Romantic Love, Without A Mate. And It Can Really Distract You From Your Goals. But Sometimes You Have To Take A Leap.

I Want To Sit Down, And I Want To Laugh. Nothing Works Better For Me Than Watching Somebody Slip On A Banana Peel.

So Now I'm Left With Cigarettes, And I'm Trying To Scrape That Off My Shoe And Then I'll Be Done.

I Think That Directing Is The Ultimate Martyred Task Of Filmmaking, That It Has Nobility To It. It Takes Three Years To Make A Film, For The Most Part. I Think It Requires The Attentiveness Of A Mother Hen.

I Do Feel That If It's Not On The Page, There's No Hope Of It Getting To The Stage. You Really Can't Take A Cat And Turn It Into A Dog, Or Try And Get Lemons Off An Apple Tree, Or What Have You. Sometimes There's This Real Naïveté That People Possess, Where They Want You To Infuse A Scene With A Certain Quality, And It's Like An Apology. "i Read The Script, Didn't You? What's The Agenda Here?"
