acting actors way
I'm such a fan of actors, and also enjoy watching them work, so that I can help their acting in any way I can.
actors film screenplays
To me, the screenplay only becomes the Bible of the film after the actors have been cast.
school people actors
I know that some great actors can transform, and that's fine. But I come from the school of thought that people put a version of themselves in their films.
kids life
A story about my life should not be particularly interesting, but it is: it's just about me and some kids who didn't know how to talk to each other. It's personal but not autobiographical.
exquisite piece
'Midnight Cowboy' is an exquisite piece of filmmaking. It's insane.
acting allen enjoy fan films help honesty lee line spike tricky walks watching woody work
I'm such a fan of actors and also enjoy watching them work so that I can help their acting in any way I can. Sometimes it walks a tricky line because you want to be entertaining to some degree. But honesty is always entertaining to me. I'm a big Woody Allen and Spike Lee fan, and I find their films to be very honest.
war
I have friends who have had PTSD, and you can get it from other things than war.
I don't ever take a break. I'm always writing.
favorite guy love movies seen simply six terrible
One of my favorite movies that I've ever seen is '25th Hour.' I love it so much because it's simply about a guy who's going to jail for six years, and this slow, terrible day he has.

Movies are weird; it's like trying to make a painting with one hundred people. It's a weird world, but every job is weird; it's always a little bit hard, crazy and fun, a nice combination.
life
Life is tricky - you never know what's going to happen.
job movies
I've done every job in the world, and movies, the only thing close to a movie that I've ever done is it's kind of like being in a band.
casting circus intense life music relationships talk three
It's weird: making a movie is like life compacted into three months. You have these very intense relationships with people, and you talk to them every day - your editor, the casting people, music people, your actors - then it ends. It's like a circus life.
jobs manual ridiculous worked
When I had jobs, I was always doing manual jobs because I couldn't think. I worked at the docks, unloading trucks, and did ridiculous jobs.
