Like Everything, What Compels One To Put

All I Mean Is, I'm Not The Kind Of Audience Comedy Directors Want At A Test Screening Because I Seldom Laugh, And If I Do, It's Not Very Loud. That Doesn't Mean I Don't Like The Movie.

What Makes Me Angry Is The Idea That People Would Be Going To A Movie Because Of What I Said About It. It Makes Me Feel, I Don't Know, Arrogant, Self-important, Self-aggrandizing, Whatever. Like I'm Being Used.

People Call You "director," But It Really Should Be "economic Manager." Because Everything Is "well, We Can Do Another Take Here, But Then You're Gonna Lose That Shot Over There." Or "the Sun's Going Down, Sorry, You're Outta Luck. We Can't Afford To." You Know? And Meanwhile, How Do You Get The Performer's Performance? I'm Thinking The Whole Time All About "how Can I Get My Day Done?" And My Performances Are Primarily A Result Of Casting The Right People At The Right Time In The Right Parts. And Then I Do Little Modifications.

A Movie Takes On Its Own Life, And You Have To Respect That And Be Open To It.

People Cant Help How They Look.
