Everyone I Know Who Used To Be

Developing Films With Directors, Developing Films With Actors, Is A Poor Percentage Play For A Screenwriter.

Fear Changes Everything. We're Animals, And When We Get Afraid We Act Like Animals. I'm Not Exempt From That.

No One Should Feel Sorry For A Successful Screenwriter.

I Worked For A Lot Of Directors.

The Writing Is Really Hard. You're Alone. It Really Pulls It Out Of You. You Pull It Out Of Your Head. But When You're A Director, You're Shopping - You're Picking This Actor, You're Picking This Scene. It's Like The Most Intense Kinetic High-speed Shopping Of All Time. You Sit In A Chair And It Will All Come Rushing At You Like A Wind Tunnel.
