assignment hired job
Be serious. You've got to do the job you were hired to do well, but there's always more you can do. When I was an assistant, I would say to myself, 'You may not be an executive, but act like one.' I would volunteer for any creative assignment - read scripts, do 'coverage,' write notes.

Munich. If you're on either side in an extremist way on the issue of the source of the Middle East conflict, you're not going to just be upset, you're going to be really upset. Is that the reason not to make it? That was the gist of all of our conversations.

I have always felt that my career was not going to be a straight shot up, but more of a kind of rolling wave, so that I could raise my children.

For 'Fright Night,' we really want to convey the fun attitude of the movie and show the intensity of Colin Farrell as a predator. He's not a brooding vampire - he's dark and dangerous.

affected divide executives gender guy social spending sure time whatever work younger
The only way the gender divide affected me was the social things the younger guy executives could do with their bosses. I don't know what went on in the clubs, because I didn't go. I made sure my work was stellar, and that compensated for whatever social time we weren't spending together.
