I Probably Drive Casting People Crazy Because

When You Make Movies, You've Picked The Most Expensive Art Form, And Somebody Has To Pay For It. You Kind Of Owe It To Them To At Least Let Them Know How You Expect To Make It As Accessible To As Many People As You Can, Given The Story You're Telling.

Sometimes I Go To A Test Screening And Look At The Audience In Line, And I Start To Go, "okay, I Bet This Is Going To Work, And This Isn't Going To Work." It's Weird, But Just Going And Facing The Music And Putting It Out Before A Crowd, Even Before It Starts Playing, That Exercise Of Putting It Up On A Screen For People Makes You Realize Things Even Before It Starts Rolling. It's Really Weird. I've Heard Other People Say That, Too.

It Kind Of Hit Me At Some Point During The Process That Most People In The Film Business - Not Just The Executives, The People Who Make Them, Too - Tend To Come From Pretty Upper-class Backgrounds.

That Kind Of Thing, I Sure Didn't Have.
