The Problem With Being British...

Theres A Certain Truth That You Do End Up Making The Same Film Again And Again So If You Vary The Genre You Have A Chance Of Breaking That Cycle.

The Perfect Equation Is Form Equals Content. The Style Of The Film Reflects The Story, And That's What You're Always Aiming For. You're Not Always Necessarily Successful At It, But That's The Ambition That You're Trying To Do.

One Of The Things In The Mary Shelley [frankenstein] Is That The Creature Tells His Story, So This Begins With The Creature's Point Of View. So, It Literally Starts With The Creature Opening His Eyes And Is Born - But Is Obviously In His 30s. But Because They're The Creator And The Created We Thought It Would Be Really Interesting If They Could Look At Each Other Every Other Night And Play Each Other's Roles.

I Haven't Got Anything Against Films That Are About The Minutia Of Relationships Or Customs, But I Love Extremes. I Love Taking A Bunch Of Characters And It Usually Is A Bunch Of Characters, And You Throw Something At Them That's Usually Extreme, Like A Bag Of Money, Or You Send Them Out To Explode A Nuclear Device On The Surface Of The Sun. And Those Extremes Are Wonderful For Drama.
