You get an image after you act in a film, but it is not necessary that you last long because of that image.

The difference being that in films, unlike in life, good does always win over evil in the end.

In the South, it is different, they have a audience that is literate.

If somebody had started on a remake of French Kiss before I announced my own film, I would have dropped my subject. If someone else starts after me, what am I to do?

Today I divide my day between being actor, producer and distributor, and the monotony is broken.

It gets tiring, doing the same thing everyday.

In the industry, you do need some ethics - if one film does well, then thousands get work and money comes back to the industry. I guess the bottomline is, if there are two versions, then the better one will click.
