I Prefer Writing Originals.

But What I Didn't Recognize When I Was Much Younger Was This Sort Of...when You're On, When You're Really On, Go At It.

I Like Knowing Where I Am In Action Sequences If I'm Supposed To.

Developing Films With Directors, Developing Films With Actors, Is A Poor Percentage Play For A Screenwriter.

Once A Film Costs A Certain Amount Of Money, Things Have To Round Off.

The Writing Is Really Hard. You're Alone. It Really Pulls It Out Of You. You Pull It Out Of Your Head. But When You're A Director, You're Shopping - You're Picking This Actor, You're Picking This Scene. It's Like The Most Intense Kinetic High-speed Shopping Of All Time. You Sit In A Chair And It Will All Come Rushing At You Like A Wind Tunnel.
