But, Like Ivy, We Grow Where There

Most Great Filmmakers Are Good At Place. Like How People Say, Like, "the City Itself Is A Character In The Movie," You Know? I'm So Interior. I Always Forget There's Such A Thing As An Exterior Wide Shot, Where You Can See Where Someone Is. As Opposed To Just: How Can We Show What This Person Is Thinking, In An Abstract Way That Is Felt?

I Knew The Beginning And The End – I Just Had To Dream Up A Convincing Middle.

I Think Because I Write So Many Short Stories, It's Not That Hard To Come Up With Characters That Are Not Me.

Making A Movie: It's So Hard. It's The Hardest Of All The Things I Do.
