It's hard to see a film one time and really "get it," and write fully and intelligently about it. That's a review. That's not film criticism.
Richard Linklaterโฆ[Thomas Wolfe] says that we are the sum of all the moments of our lives, and that, uh, anybody who sits down to write is gonna use the clay of their own life, that you canโt avoid that.
Richard LinklaterI think maybe making films is something innate you can't really teach to begin with.
Richard LinklaterI'd be fine to make movies and have them never come out. But you have to deal with the business side. You can't get too emotionally invested, because again, you've got no control. There's going to be some huge film out that everyone goes to, and it probably won't be mine.
