Free Time Keeps Me Going.

In Rare Cases, I've Had Music Before I Shot The Movie. I Think That For 'good Will Hunting' I Had An Elliot Smith Record Or A Couple Of Them And I Just Somehow Felt Like The Sound Had Something To It That Reminded Me Of The Story. So In That Case There Was Music Beforehand.

I Think That In Some Cases, I've Made Films That Have A Sentimental Quality, At Least As Part Of The Film.

Usually When I Read Something, First Of All I'm Looking For The Story And Then When I Reread It, I'm Sort Of Checking Every Part Of It To See If Every Scene Is Necessary.

If A Movie Isn't Released, It's One Thing, But If You Know It Will Be, It's Nice To Have Closure And See It Come Out.

If It Were Up To The Executives, They Probably Wouldn't Have Directors At All.
