So What If My Face Is Falling

Essentially, My Kids Grew Up With The Emphasis On The Environment Because I Became A Political Activist In About 1969 And It Was Not An Easy Time. Those Were The Days When The Oil And Gas Companies Pretty Much Controlled The Show And Anybody Speaking About Solar Energy Or Carbon Energy Would Get Smashed Down As Being A Radical Or A Tree-hugger Or What Have You. So I Was Out There Feeling Very Often Alone And My Kids Would Get That.

I Love Making Films More Than Anything, But It's Tough.

Usually I Like To Improvise. Sometimes, Depending On The Nature Of The Piece, I Like To Improvise Because I Think It Brings A Certain Freshness And A Reality To It, As Long As It Doesn't Go Too Far Out Of The Box.

As An Artist I Just Can't Think Of A Better Life Than The One I've Been Blessed With. It's Just A Great Ride.

I Was Producing Things I Was Acting In, But I Had Never Directed And I Felt It Was Time. I Was Looking For A Piece Of Material That Was About Behavior And Feelings. When I Read Judith Guest's Book, I Thought, This Is It.
