My Experience Of Test Screenings Is That

It's Part Of The Film-making Business And Also Part Of The Creative Process - Putting All The Pieces Together To Make A Movie, So That They All Line Up. Sometimes It Looks Like You Have A Lot Of Projects Lined Up, But Some Of Them Are In Different Stages.

Tupac Shakur Is Something That, Of Course I Want To Make The Tupac Movie, I Love Tupac, But When That Movie Was Announced, We Didn't Even Have A Script Yet. It Was Just Being Written. People Announce Things Too Soon. If You Go To Any Filmmaker - Clint Eastwood, Oliver Stone, Martin Scorsese, Ben Affleck, Michael Mann - You Go In Their Offices And There Are Scripts Everywhere And There's About Four Or Five Of Them You Really Want To Make.

You Could Call It That [urban Western], I Guess, You Could Certainly Call It That. A Lot Of These Types Of Films Are, Really, If You Get Down To The Core Most Suspense Thrillers In This Genre, The Western Is Sort Of The Birth Of It All.

I Became A Director Just For The Love Of Movies, Because Of The Power Of Cinema.

I'm A Product Of Older Filmmakers I Guess, The Past Where You Get To Make Movies And Scenes Are What They Are. You Know If You Think About Scorsese Back In The Day When He Was Making Taxi Driver, Or Coppola Or Frankenheimer, Sidney Lumet, They're Making Films Where You Witness Violence In A Real Way.
