Usually, When Making A Film, The Surprises Are Negative Surprises. You Don't Get What You Wanted Or What You Hoped For. The Only Nice Surprises Are Those That Are Offered To You By Actors When They Offer You These Gifts, When They Are Better And Give You More Than What You Had Originally Conceived. That Doesn't Happen Every Day On Set, But If It Happens A Couple Of Times In The Course Of Making A Film, You Can Consider Yourself Very Lucky.

It's A Fact That People Who Are In A Weakened Position, Whether Physically Or Mentally, Have This Perception Of The Outer World As Threatening. Everything That Is Unexpected Or Unknown Is Seen As A Potential Danger.

It's Much Harder To Write A Script That Involves Two People In A Single Location Than 20 People In 30 Different Locations.

I Never Use Soundtrack; It Is Always Part Of The Story.
