I'm trying to keep up with what's happening in this turbulent world.
First of all, what in this world does not revolve around money? But money is a big part of film, unlike a lot of other art forms.
I think it is very important that films make people look at what they've forgotten.
I like to work with the same people when I can, and you want to get people with the same interests that you have, and the same aesthetic.
It has been my observation that parents kill more dreams than anybody.
I used the principles of Kickstarter to make 'She's Gotta Have It.' We filmed that in 1985 to 1986. The final cost was $175,000. I didn't have that money. It was friends, grants, donations. We saved our bottles for the nickel deposit.
