Sand Is Overrated. It's Just Tiny Little

There's Theater In Life, Obviously, And There's Life In Theater.

If I Were Doing Somebody Else's Script Or I Adapted A Book By Philip Roth, On Set There Could Be A Million Different Interpretations Of The Material And People Could Argue With Me. Certainly On Synecdoche, New York We Had Discussions And Arguments, But I Felt Like I Had Authority Because I'm A Writer.

The Way I Write Is Very Much Without Kind Of A Goal. I Have Something I'm Interested In And Then I Decide I'm Going To Explore It. I Don't Know Where The Characters Are Going To Go, I Don't Know What The Movie Is Going To Do Or What The Screenplay Is Going To Do. For Me, That's The Way To Keep It Alive.

I Have A Lot Of Health Anxiety.

I Like For People To Figure Things Out For Themselves. It's Not Like I Have The Right Answer, But If I Have A Visceral Reaction To Something, I'm Sure That Other People Will, Too.
