As The Years Go By And I

You Just Never Know When You're Living In A Golden Age.

I Like Actors Who, When You See Them On Screen, You Sense A Person, Not Just An Actor.

In A General Sense, To Convert Any Short Story, Novel, Play, Or Opera Into A Movie, You Have To Re-rig It. Even Though They're All Narratives Over Time, They're Very Different Forms.

I Never Wanted Money Worries To Slow Me Down Or Make Me Take A Job I Didn't Want.

I'd Love To Be A Director-for-hire And Get A Nice Paycheck And Captain One Of Those Big Ships, But I Think Studios Mistakenly Think I Want To Write What I Direct - Which I Don't. I Write Out Of Desperation, Because I Never Get A Script I Like, Other Than "nebraska." It's A Matter Of: What's The Screenplay? Is It Intelligent? Is It Human? I Don't Care What Genre, What Scale. I'm Here For The Movies.
