Nobody will ever notice that. Filmmaking is not about the tiny details. It's about the big picture.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Everything about filmmaking tries to distract you from that first fine rapturous vision you have of the film.
Other filmmakers make their movies and put them out and that's that. For me, for some odd reason, it goes deeper than that.
You're watching the movie for the first time when you're working with the actors in front of the camera. You don't think about how the audience will react. You discover the film.
Film is important; it can be more than reportage or a novel - it creates images people have never seen before, never imagined they'd see, maybe because they needed someone else to imagine them.
Ultimately, the film industry has always pushed out its biggies, and I don't have a problem with that. I just wish that we'd spend more time nurturing the smaller ones.
As soon as anybody puts anything on film, it automatically has a point of view, and it's somebody else's point of view, and it's impossible for it to be yours.
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.
I always tell younger filmmakers, it's not just about the acting or the art itself. It's about how big of an audience watches your film.
In the world of independent filmmaking, you're never quite sure what's happening when and where.
I think it is very important that films make people look at what they've forgotten.
