I think what some people are doing with effects is starting to get silly. It's overused.

In motion pictures, the actor rules. The camera served the actor.

It was 1978 when Superman came out, and I kept thinking, Why don't they do something about it? They've done all these crappy attempts at comic book film adaptations. What can we do different? Why don't we just re-release this thing?

It's only been a couple of times in my life that I've really locked horns with actors. It did not hurt the films, it just hurt the moment of the filmmaking.

I was painting sets, working in editorial as an assistant, driving their trucks... lying that I knew how to drive a truck... and doing commercials and documentaries.

I'm open to comments. I'm open to objective points of view, because I've been very narrow and very subjective.

It was just the thrill of a lifetime. Brando and Hackman were two of my heroes.
