I Worked Offshore As An Oil Worker

It's Hard To See A Film One Time And Really "get It," And Write Fully And Intelligently About It. That's A Review. That's Not Film Criticism.

If You Establish Rules And Play By Them, The Audience Will Buy In.

That's The History Of Art - You Have To Consider Yourself Fortunate If You Ever Get Acknowledged. If You Have A Critical Success That's Also A Financial Success And That You Feel Good About... If Things Line Up, That's Pretty Rare.

I Have A Lot Of Films That I Haven't Gotten Made, And That Continues To Trouble Me. But Someday, Some Way Or Another, I Think I Will. It's All About Timing. There's A Moment When You're Hot And Studios Will Make Your Next Film, And Then There's A Moment When You're Really Cold, And They Couldn't Care Less What You Want To Do Next. That's When You Have To Recede And Make Lower-budgeted Films.
