I'm so from the Woody Allen/Spike Lee school.
Most of the time, I don't watch classics with anybody. I have to be by myself. That's my classroom.
If I'm hesitant at all about an idea, then that's not the right idea.
I try to take B genre movies and treat them as if they're A dramas. Get the cinematographers, get the actors to do an A drama, but it just happens to be about aliens or ghosts or crazy people, or killers, or whatever it is.
There is no one looking out for us. We are all alone.
My biggest fear in life is to be average.
