After 100 Years, Films Should Be Getting

I Just Haven't Let Myself Get To A Place Where I've Felt A Part Of Any Kind Of A Community, So I've Always Stayed Outside Of It.

A Lot Of Times You Can Write A Scene With A Specific Song In Mind, And Then You Lay It Over The Image, And It Kills It. I Can Never Figure Out Why Certain Music Works. Some Music You Listen To And Say, "man, That Would Be Great For A Movie." But When You Try It, It's Horrible, Because The Music Itself Is Cinematic. The Weight Of It Kills The Image.

Often The Biggest Dreamers Get Hurt The Most. They Were Pure In Their Insanity And In Their Isolation. They Were Living The Dream Amongst Themselves And Didn’t Realize It. It’s When They Invited The Public Inside Their World That Everything Went Wrong.

Directing, To Me, Starts Even Before We Get To The Set. Directing Is A Fluid, An Abstract Thing. It's Not Done Only Purely In The Moment. It's An Idea That You Plant Before. It's A Location That You Show. It's Something I Whisper In Someone's Ear. It's A Freeform Thing. It Only Takes Me A Week To Write The Script, But It's Years That You're Thinking About It. The Execution Is Really The Fast Part.

For Certain Things, Certain Audiences, People Will Laugh. And In Other Places, There's Dead Silence. And I Enjoy Them Both. You Try To Make Films Where It's Never One Way - Like Life.
