Period recreation is very difficult unless you make a black and white movie.

I'm a pluralist. I've always argued that as many different films as possible should be made.

Rain is also very difficult to film, particularly in Ireland because it's quite fine, so fine that the Irish don't even acknowledge that it exists.

Well, if you ask any filmmaker how they got into it, everyone came a different route. Ive never actually watched another director work.

Personally I am very much against the death penalty for several reasons.

A Great Movie Evolves when Everybody Has the Same Vision in Their Heads.

I've always been completely autocratic. I've never learned to be diplomatic or democratic.
