You've Got To Believe As A Filmmaker

Now Im Back Home, Living In London, Running My Theater. I Just Want To Enjoy All That.

Shooting Action Is Very, Very Meticulous, It's Increments, Tiny Little Pieces.

I've Made Movies That Cost Less Than One Car Chase. But That's Part Of The Pleasure Of Doing It, Pushing Yourself In New Directions.

There Have Been Screenwriters Who I'm Sure Would Gladly Kill Me, Because I've Been Very Fast And Loose With Their Work, Because I Felt Like It Wasn't Up To My High Standards. I Would Push And Pull It On Set, And Make Changes All The Time. But Then When You're Working With An Original Screenplay, My Theater Instincts Kick In, And I Suddenly Become Very Keeper-of-the-words.

Actors Get Pigeonholed Very Quickly, Particularly Movie Actors. In The Theater, One Is More Used To Casting People Against Type And Trusting That Their Talent And Skill Will Get Them Through.
