A lot of filmmakers from my generation were lucky enough to have their work more or less perpetuated by people who saw them originally on TV and on HBO and certainly on home video.

It's a lot of power to give the director to edit his own stuff. It's also a time thing: you don't want to have to wait for the guy to finish shooting before he starts editing.

I'm always looking for films, but the horror scripts that I get tend to be very repetitive and often not that interesting.

I've made a lot of movies with kids in them. I don't know why that is, but it's something I've noticed.

I mean, movies are all geared to be basically under 25, and they're all tentpoles, explosions, excitement and all that - they take advantage of the big screen, which is great.

Editing is where movies are made or broken. Many a film has been saved and many a film has been ruined in the editing room.
