backs business failures mean meaner strength survive tough year
Well first of all it's a business and it's a tough business, and you have to have the strength to survive all the set backs all the failures that make this a mean business, that's getting meaner and meaner every year in my opinion.
control gone mean passion poisoned resources running time
Weve poisoned the air, the water, and the land.In our passion to control nature,things have gone out of control.Progress from now on has to mean something different.Were running out of resources andwe are running out of time
confused mean independent
Whereas money is a means to an end for a filmmaker, to the corporate mind money is the end. Right now, I think independent film is very confused, because there's excess pressure in the marketplace for entertainment to pay off.
running mean passion
We've poisoned the air, the water, and the land. In our passion to control nature, things have gone out of control. Progress from now on has to mean something different. We're running out of resources and we are running out of time.
mean thinking years
There's a lot of hyperventilation that takes off before the [Sundance Film] Festival, a lot of buzz. Every year we hear, this is going to be the new this, this is going to be the new that, and it never is. The buzz just doesn't mean anything. I'm glad it doesn't. Because I think the festival shows that what succeeds is content.
mean talking achieve
Generally speaking, I went through that. I came to a place where I realised what true value was. It wasn't money. Money is a means to achieving an end, but it's not the end.
success blessed mean
I was blessed to look well and retain a youthful look but that was just genes. I was disappointed when critics started pointing out my wrinkles. I thought, you mean this is what it's gonna be about now? I'm not going to be permitted to be human?
beginning bound create criticized fail happy
We could create something that was criticized in the beginning as bound to fail because it wasn't commercial. And it has worked, and I'm happy with it.
alone came leave milk sequel stuff
The stuff that came to us wasn't any good, ... (They said) can you do a sequel to 'The Sting?' No, leave that one alone ... don't try to milk it.
funny passengers
We do not own this place, we are just passengers
scene vowed
I vowed after that scene because there was a scene where things went wrong,
absorb chance deal films great information offer subject viewers
Documentary films offer viewers a chance to absorb a great deal more information about a subject or issue.
changed films instead people
There's going to be a lot of films in there that people are just not going to like at all. That's part of the deal. I don't think it's changed. What has changed is now, instead of 350 people there, as it was the first year, there's 40,000, 45,000.
program
We don't program (the festival) for commerciality. We program for diversity.
