It's okay to lie as long as you reach a higher truth doing it.

I think test screenings with an audience are useful because they have no dog in the fight, they just say how they feel.

It's okay to lie as long as you reach a higher truth doing it.

It's always once the script's done in the first two years if it doesn't get going somehow or another, I've never had an old script that someone's made later on.

I worked as hard to write the worst film of the year as I did to write the best film of the year.

I write R-rated action dramas, and every year that goes by, that gets to be a smaller and smaller world you have to work in. You have to think of how to get the studio excited and sell them something.

In my own experience, the scripts that I wrote, if they didn't go within two years and become a film, they never went and no one ever came looking for them.
