I don't like scripts leaking. On the other hand, the more real attention a script gets, the better.

I write drama in the English language. If I wasn't working in London I'd be doing something wrong.

You evolve in the ways in which you are precious. When you are the director, you are also continuing to write on the floor as you go along.

Yeah, well I can't see a situation where I wouldn't at least re-write as a director something I was going to direct. At the moment, I wouldn't direct anything that I hadn't written. I can now say, as everybody else says, that it all depends on the script.

I cut London Boulevard pretty aggressively, but I liked the transitions and the elliptical feel that I got. It's not an exceptionally easy film to follow. You have to know that the paparazzo looks like Mark David Chapman. He hasn't got an expositional sign on him.

Dialogue is used to reveal not what we want to say, but what we are trying to hide.

I think probably everybody works most on the beginning and the ending.
