I've never done a movie that's shot more than 40 days because I just don't do those kinds of films.

Usually, you can shoot a movie in 10 or 12 weeks.

With fashion, you go deep into a shoot for one day, but a movie lasts so much longer. It's literally like going to summer camp.

That would be getting up at 5 am... I don't understand why film's shoot such brutal hours. I think it'd be worth it to not be so strictly cost-effective and have an 8 hour day. The film's would benefit in the end.

A movie shoots six months for two hours of film.

After I directed for the first time, I wanted to call every director I'd ever worked with and apologize. In television you are tasked with shooting 42 minutes, or whatever, in eight days. That's not a lot of time.

I never dreamed that shooting a film would be so hard. There was less regulation then of child actors' hours. Even the concept of acting confused me.

Sometimes you shoot for 40 or 50 hours for a one-hour show, and you have to make some very hard choices.

When you're shooting a movie, it's two months of your life usually. You don't really have time to see anybody else. Your friends are put on hold while you're shooting, and what you have is the family that you create on set.

After making a movie, maybe you weren't able to shoot many of your ideas, because a movie is only 1 1/2 or two hours long, but TV gives you space to film a lot of things.
