When a director makes a mistake, people suffer. People suffer horribly sometimes.

I love directors who talk action as opposed to emotion.

Directing is a huge amount of work with very little payoff, and a quarter of the money, and nine times more time spent.

I have a tendency to say 'yes' to a script or no to a script. Not 'yes' based on a rewrite.

We must admit that it is quite common that people do have affairs with their leading ladies and men.

Ultimately, a more experienced director realizes that you've got to stop sometime and just move on. They're braver about that.

Yeah, I made it. It sneaks up on you. You're some schmuck and you wake up one day and you go, Good God, I'm the cheese.
