The amount of piracy is extraordinary. People don't realize how big it is.
From Lorenzo di Bonaventura
The action pictures I've been typically involved with, when somebody gets punched, you really feel the punching, and when somebody gets shot, you really feel the shot.
I think when you're doing something cutting edge like 'The Matrix,' it might mean when everybody's saying 'no' that you're really on the right track.
If the studio wants to spend money on making your movie better, let them.
I mean, I'm not a contrarian.
What I can't figure out is why we're not making more R-rated movies, actually.
One of the things that's driving films in a particular direction is that the after market value of them is dropping really fast and in many segments of it, not just DVDs. Pay television is dropping.
My experience is that you can't possibly win against whatever the tidal wave is that's coming at you.
What I keep searching for in movies, more and more, is the right gravity.
I don't like the term 'ensemble.' It's bland to me.
