I'm A Believer That People Need To

I'm Really Specific In The Way That I Shoot. I've Always Had A Very Good Sense Of What I Need In The Editing Room.

I'm A Believer That People Need To Understand That Filmmaking Is Not A Perfect Process For Anybody. It Is A Process In Which You Find The Film And The Film Finds You. And That Is Every Film.

'juno' Really Changed Things For Me And I Get A Lot Of Screenplays Come In Now, But I Like To Self-generate And I Like To Kind Of Pursue My Own Ideas. And I Think The More Personal The Better.

Directing Is A Reactionary Job More Than A Creation Job. The Job Is To React Whether It's Moment One, The First Time You Read The Script Or See An Article Or Read A Book Or Notice Something Happen On The Street And Have An Idea For A Movie, And It Just Continues From There On In. You're Just Reacting To Dialogue, A Performance, An Audition, A Headache, A Piece Of Furniture, A Piece Of Clothing.
