A lot of black-and-white films generally have a color version that will be used for TV.

I try to write 'and it's all very funny' after each scene description so that the reader can imagine the movie in their head.

I kind of live like a writer. I get up and I write. I've done that my whole life.

Adaptations are fun for me because they connect to the idea of filmmaking I had when I was a kid. I would see a movie and think: 'I'm gonna make that movie.'

I think sometimes bad behaviour can be liberating for certain people. They need to behave badly to find themselves - to go off path to find their path. You see it with kids all the time: They're testing boundaries, and I think that's healthy.

I like having associations with locations beyond their meaning for the specific movie.
