My Department Is To Get Actors To

I Have This New Theory About Films. It's Almost Like Astrology, Where If We Started On A Tuesday The Film Will Be Different Than If We Started On A Wednesday. Not Because Of The Planets. It's That Sometimes You Start With The Wrong Balance And The Whole Thing Gets Messed Up.

If Im Diagnosed With Cancer I Might Become Despondent, But Someone Young Might Not, And They Might Need Connections With Somebody Outside Their Circle Of Family Because Their Family Is So Despondent.

If It Were Up To The Executives, They Probably Wouldn't Have Directors At All.

A Lot Of Times, You're Not Necessarily Off The Page Because You Haven't Been Able To Take The Time To Prepare A Character. It's Very Easy To Find Even Great Actors Reading It More Like A Reading. Things Aren't Really Coming Alive Yet, Even Though You Know They Will.

I Was Once A Shameless, Full-time Dope Fiend.
