I Suppose I Could Try To Be

Nobody's Talking About Movies The Way They're Talking About Their Favorite Tv Shows.

There Are People Who Are Originals And The Stuff They Make Really Is New. It Isn't Based On Anything Else. But I've Decided I'm Not That-i Was Never That. My Abilities Are To Synthesize A Wide Range Of References And Ideas Into Something That Feels Relatively Unified And Coherent.

I Don't Have Any Kind Of Ideology That Precludes Me From Moving In One Direction Or Another. I Just Want Creative Autonomy And I Want At Least An Opportunity That It's Going To Be Seen.

I've Found Through Experience That I'm Only Good When I'm Writing Something That, In Essence, Only I Could Write. The Times I've Written For Hire, For Other People, I Don't Think I've Done Very Well.

My First Three Movies, I Didn't Start Editing Until We Were Finished Shooting. That's Unthinkable To Me Now.
