I thought I was going to make bigger films for mass audiences. And I wanted that. I actually had in mind a James-Bondian thriller.
From Whit Stillman
I find it preferable not to have public opinions about anything. It's good for me to shut up.
I'm very concerned about the countries bordering Russia. But let's stay off that stuff.
I like things that are sort of comic and humorous rather than satirical.
I really like the short stories that Melissa Bank writes. I think she's sort of channeling the female version of J.D. Salinger in more recent days.
So much of artistic creation is just exclusion. It's not creating things; it's just excluding things that really aren't going to be helpful.
I've learned that I really want to shoot short films on a short schedule. There can be very good films that run 110 minutes, but 90 minutes is beautiful.
What frustrates me a lot about some aspects of filmmaking is people thinking everyone is really dumb and that we have to make everything really obvious.
