few scripts written
'Hardware' came about because I had written quite a few scripts and hadn't had any luck getting them made.
absolutely complete
The Roundhouse was a complete shell. It was absolutely empty, lying derelict for years.
experience looking seen
'Dust Devil,' I've never really seen with an American audience, so I'm looking forward to that experience.
brian britain given honourable john literary michael time whatever
Britain has had a very honourable tradition of literary sci-fi - H. G. Wells, John Wyndham, J. G. Ballard, Brian Aldiss, Michael Moorcock - but for whatever reason, they have never really been given the time of day on screen.
avoiding elsewhere korea problems proud record seen track
We are very proud of our track record in Korea and elsewhere in avoiding some of the problems that were seen in those markets.
clients expect given less rate secret stage
There's no secret that the revolve rate of clients here is less than in other markets. But, again, that is not unusual, given the stage of development we're in, and we'd expect that to increase.
care credit degree happy high market processes taken
We have taken a high degree of care in a new market like this and on how we enter. So we're very happy with the credit processes we have put in place.
confusing director moved screenplay suddenly trying writer
With 'Moreau,' it's been particularly confusing because I started out being the writer of the screenplay and then trying to be the director, then being moved from being the director and having to become the dog extra, it makes some kind of sense to suddenly become a character in the story.
america becoming believe england meant rapidly running south spent states time
Having spent all that time getting away from South Africa, running away from the army, I wanted very much to believe that America and England were actually as free as they were meant to be, not slipping rapidly into becoming police states like the one I'd just left.
age
From a very early age, I knew I wanted to be Carl Denham.
cans coming coppola obviously position scarcely
Obviously if you're Coppola going into 'Apocalypse Now' off the back of the two 'Godfathers,' you're in a much better position than coming off the back of something like 'Dust Devil,' which had scarcely been released, and was pretty much lying around in film cans in different places.
dead debt money personally picked rights spent tab
I was so in debt by the end of 'Dust Devil,' having picked up the tab personally for the post-production of the movie, and having no way to recoup because I didn't own the rights to the movie. There was no way I could see any money back on it, so any money spent was just a dead loss.
bond buildings until
We will be, in effect, tenants of those buildings for 20 to 25 years until the bond is repaid.
believe currency enable fully providing step
It will enable us to fully participate in the development of the FX market, while providing more flexibility for our clients. We believe this is another important step for the advancement of China's currency market.
