years desire might
I didn't have any desire I might have had 10 years ago to shoot every single word that I wrote.
confusing fans whimsical
I've never been a fan of whimsical or confusing storytelling.
finals film bigs
To make a film, the final big collaborator that you have is the composer.
long childhood remember
I had the standard movie geek childhood, because for as long as I can remember, all I wanted to do was make movies.
feelings good-movie gut-feelings
I have a feeling, one of those gut feelings, that I'll make pretty good movies the rest of my life.
jobs hardest-job acting
Acting is the hardest job in the entire world. By far. Harder than ditch digging.
rain fall orange
It's so hard to do anything that doesn't owe some kind of debt to what Stanley Kubrick did with music in movies. Inevitably, you're going to end up doing something that he's probably already done before. It always seem like we're falling behind whatever he came up with. 'Singin' in the Rain'' in Clockwork Orange - that was the first time I became so aware of music in movies. So no matter how hard you try to do something new, you're always following behind.
criticism
How do I respond to criticism? Critically. I listen to all criticism critically.
thinking competition hollywood
I don't think the competition's so rough, within the majority of movies made in Hollywood.
night thinking mcdonalds
Clinton used to like to get out of the White House a lot. He would take night trips to McDonald's, and stuff like that. I think he wanted to get out of the house.
writing stomach
I write from my stomach.
father film
As I have got older and become a father, there's less and less time for films.
sadness matter film
No matter how many times you do it, you don't get used to the sadness - for me at least - of coming to the end of a film.
people film adages
I really subscribe to that old adage that you should never let the audience get ahead of you for a second. So if the film's abrasive and wrongfoots people then, y'know, that's great. But I hope it involves an audience.
