I just kind of assumed that you do a movie and then you leave and you hop onto the next thing. I never thought that people are actually buddies.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Usually, you don't really end up lifelong buddies with your co-stars.
You make a movie with some people, you become friends over the process of making this movie and then... you go your own way.
After Hollywood, you know if people are interested in you or in the fact that you've been in a movie. You know who your real friends are.
You know, when I first started making online videos, there were a lot of filmmakers I befriended who were doing it too.
Some of the closest friends you make in TV are the producers who travel on field assignments with you - you're together 24/7.
When you're supposed to be close and friends in the film, the moment you're talking as friends off the set, it makes it that much better when you're filming.
On a big film, there's almost no way you can meet everyone. On an indie, there are 30 people and no trailers to duck into.
My belief is that no movie, nothing in life, leaves people neutral. You either leave them up or you leave them down.
I have always done films with friends rather than strangers.
It's a great feeling to think that I can be a friend to so many people through my movies.
