I Love Metaphor The Way Some People

I'm Not Religious. It's An Issue, 'cause I've Got Two Little Kids, And I Feel You Can't Grow Up Without Knowledge Of Religion.

I'm Drawn To A Lot Of First-time Directors. One Of The Great Common Denominators In These Small Independent Films Is That There's A Person, Or Two People, Who Have An Absolutely Monomaniacal Passion To Get These Films Made. That's What Makes Them Happen. Sometimes, It Takes Years And Years To Finally Get It Done, But By Never Backing Down, By Never Giving Up, They Get These Films To The Screen By Hook Or By Crook.

Emotions Are The Natural Result Of Striving For Something. Every Single Scene Has Two Or More People In It, And Nobody Wants The Same Thing, So They Are Negotiating This One Way Or Another. The Result Of That Negotiation Will Bring Out All Kinds Of Emotional Stuff In You.

You Should Know The Lines, Be Prepared, Get Sleep, And Have The Script Analyzed So You're Ready To Rock And Roll.
