The Essence Of Cinema Is Editing.

I Associate My Motion Picture Career More With Being Unhappy And Scared, Or Being Under The Gun, Than With Anything Pleasant.

George Lucas Doesn't Have The Most Physical Stamina. He Was So Unhappy Making Star Wars That He Just Vowed He'd Never Do It Again.

We Were Raised In An Italian-american Household, Although We Didn't Speak Italian In The House. We Were Very Proud Of Being Italian, And Had Italian Music, Ate Italian Food.

The Only Tv I Would Be Interested In Exploring Would Be Live Television. There's No Substitute For A Team Of Artists Performing At Their Peak Live When Failure Is Possible. It's A High-wire Act. That Excites Me.

I Gladly, I Voluntarily Gave Up The Kind Of Commercial Film Career I Had Going As Soon As I Had Enough Money To Finance My Own Films. I Didn't Make That Money Necessarily From The Film Business, But I Eventually Made A Lot Of Money And That's What I Do. Of Course, I Consider Myself Unbelievably Fortunate, And I'm Pretty Content With My Life.
