I Take More Jobs When I Need

To This Day, I Get Rewrite Offers Where They Say: 'we Feel This Script Needs Work With Character, Dialogue, Plot And Tone,' And When You Ask What's Left, They Say: 'well, The Typing Is Very Good.'

There Was A Widespread Indignation In The American Media. They Were Saying, How Can You Make A Movie During An Election That's About Politics? What Are You Doing? Are You Trying To Influence People's Lives? To Which My Response Was, Well, I Hope So.

Basically, If You Could Get A Good Trailer Out Of The Script, Roger Had No Objection To You Making A Really Good Movie. He Liked It If You Did. He Liked The More Cleverness And Ingenuity You Could Bring To It. He Just Wasn't Going To Give You Any More Money.

There Were Not Fifteen People In The Story Department And Twenty-five Producers And Stuff. And Roger Had Produced 1,000 Movies And Directed A Couple Of Hundred, And Their Comments Were Always Very, Very Specific.

I've Always Got Five Or Six Things That Would Either Make A Good Feature Or Tv Show. And You Just Never Know. You Go And You Pitch And It May Be Exactly What They're Looking For, Or They May Stop You After Two Sentences And Say, "oh, We've Already Done Something Just Like That."
