writing thinking paper
I'm doing my best. I read in the paper that I'm an action director. They always say that, "Action director Walter Hill", if they bother writing about me at all. I think that's fine. I'm happy to do the work.
thinking should-have people
Conversations about films are always funny. I would say a majority of people want to talk about what were the more obvious successes; the big box office films. Other people wanting to be more sensitive to you want to talk about the ones that maybe didn't make a lot of money, but they think you might have a special feeling about. And then other people sometimes want to help you by suggesting that you should have done this or that in the movie, that that would have helped you a great deal in whatever capacity.
hero thinking leaving
I think action movies on the whole have moved more and more into large spectacle, even leaving out super hero movies that seem to me to be more a fantastic science fiction than they are action movies.
thinking kind problem
I think the problem with the cinema currently is that so much of the money that goes movies that offer a certain kind of repetition.
mean thinking criticism
I mean no film is beyond criticism, but I think we've made a very modest movie.
thinking boxing hollywood
Some say Hollywood movies that are made about boxing are just metaphors for other things, I think I've made one that's actually about boxing and not a metaphor.

far good movies
As far as I'm concerned, all my movies could be westerns, so this is good stuff.
easy intentions movies noble reviewed
So many movies are reviewed off their intentions, and noble intentions are fine, but I think that's an easy version.

My Father was a great boxer, and I grew up watching the fights, live and on TV too.
american-director matter perceived subject
What's not perceived to be an A movie anymore, is often subject matter that would have been thought of as a B movie many years ago.
american-director spend
But, I don't know, I really don't spend a lot of time, I think what you've got to do is you think about what you're going to do next.

I really like the direction of the Georgia program and I like Coach Dennis Felton a lot, too.

We're not going anywhere and it's time people know that we're here.
