Well, first of all, making films is a collaborative process. You need people. You need people you trust and love and who are your friends. People you can work with.

It's sort of one ongoing process where writing ends and directing starts.

I would like to do a sports movie.

You can't write something to please someone.

When you write, no matter what, it ends up personal.
