You Really Have To Focus On What

You Can't Put A Title Card At The Head Of The Movie And Say, "well, We Really Had A Bad Problem. You Know, The Actor Got Sick And It Rained This Day And We Had A Hurricane."

Everybody Has Talent And It's Just A Matter Of Moving Around Until You've Discovered What It Is. A Talent Is A Combination Of Something You Love A Great Deal And Something You Can Lose Yourself In - Something That You Can Start At 9 O'clock, Look Up From Your Work And It's 10 O'clock At Night - And Also Something That You Have A Talent, Not A Talent For, But Skills That You Have A Natural Ability To Do Very Well. And Usually Those Two Things Go Together.

It's Hard Work Making Movies. It's Like Being A Doctor: You Work Long Hours, Very Hard Hours, And It's Emotional, Tense Work. If You Don't Really Love It, Then It Ain't Worth It.

Film Is A Very Tight Little Box. If You Don't Fit In That Box, You're Gone. Television, There's More Room To Move Around.

Working Hard Is Very Important. You're Not Going To Get Anywhere Without Working Extremely Hard.
