When You're On A Film

Silent Is About Needing To Make A Scene Shorter By Having Physical Things To Cut To. That Way, You Can Manipulate A Character To The Other Side Of The Room. But, If They Say The Wrong Thing, It Might Locate That Action In A Particular Part Of The Scene. It's A Mechanical Need.

I've Told People Who Have Just Started To Make A Film That The One Thing You Might Experience Is This Feeling That Everybody Is Conspiring Against You, Because You're Not Necessarily Able To Tell What's Real And What's Not.

Sometimes, The People Who Are Helping You Can Drop The Ball.

Once You're Directing, You're Kind Of In A Certain Mode, Where You're Taking Whatever Is On The Page And Forming It Into The Film That You Think It Might Want To Be. So Whether It's My Writing Or Not, I Still Try To Work With It In The Same Way.

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