became characters cutting editing figure showing start themes wholesale within worlds
There are so many different themes and characters and worlds within the movie, ... Lo and behold, we find that the editing of all those little strains in a movie can be really difficult. I didn't want to start cutting out characters wholesale and savaging the many different performances. Over time, showing the movie became the only way to figure out how it was all rhythmically working.
atmosphere music
I just think if you play it, it seeps in, it seeps into the performances, it seeps into the atmosphere of the movie. And a lot of times I used the music ... while they were doing the scene.
greater helps hero literally process saves turns woman
Claire literally saves his life. And to me there's no better story to tell than how someone can process a knock. A hero is someone who turns their disappointment into a greater opportunity. This woman helps him on the path.

I remember loving that album. Frampton took me into the studio and played me that album and I thought it was the greatest party album that I'd heard in a long time, and so I wrote the liner notes and the album became huge.

cd double earn fourth love means original properly road side
I love the road trip. It was one of the original justifications to make the movie. So I want the movie to earn that road trip. And to me, that means calibrate it so that the fourth side of that double CD set is set up properly and it all makes sense.

I married a musician, music is everywhere I turn, thankfully. Yeah, a lot of times the ideas for a movie, or even the way I cast a movie, comes from driving around in my car and listening to tapes and thinking, 'Kate Hudson floating on a Joni Mitchell song.' That's a good scene.
came dad great hated loved
It's not a movie about, 'My dad and I, we hated each other and then we came to know that we loved each other.' No. I loved my dad. He was a great guy. I just didn't know him as an adult.

bench scenes sitting talk whatever
How many times have I thought of me sitting on a bench with him and me wriggling away from whatever he wanted to talk to me about. Sometimes you say you're going to write a story about that and sometimes it just arrives, and those scenes arrive.

I knew 'Almost Famous' wasn't playing in theaters at that long length. And really, it wasn't one of those terrible squabbles that you read about, where people want to change their name or anything. Our toughest discussion was, did Kate Hudson dance too long? It wasn't that big of a deal.
