I Do Notice That When

If I Were To Write A Book About The Progress Of Getting To A Third Film, It Would Be A Long One.

I Think The Dictator Director Is Based Upon Stories From The Past. I Don't Think Anyone Would Put Up With It Now. There Are A Lot Of People On A Film Set With Egos. So, To Be Completely Authoritarian, You'd Probably Have To Have A Reputation Like Kurosowa Or Somebody To Get Away With It.

It Didn't Have To Be A Newfound Respect For The Craft, I Knew That It's Notoriously Difficult And Frightens A Lot Of People Off. I Don't Think Anyone Knows Quite Who To Attribute It To, But The Dying Actor Who Says: "dying Is Easy, Comedy Is Hard." I Hear It.

However Good A Communicator A Director Is, Unless They've Been Actors, It's Just Not The Same As The Shorthand You Get With Someone Who's Been An Actor.

The Skill Of A Good Actor Is To Make It Always Seem Like You're In That Fantastically Spontaneous Moment. Very Often, A Stand-up Comedian Has A Different Instinct, Which Is To Reinvent. Once You've Laid Down Some Material, And Made Them Laugh, You Move On And Find Some New Material.
