I'll tell you something, and this is true: I've never been able to write a film which I didn't respect. I just can't do it. I'm very happy about all the films I haven't done.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I turned down twelve films last year... Huge money films, but I had no respect for the writer or the work.
My point was that it's hard to make good films, but I'm not under any illusion that you do all the time.
I think people respect my work, but I was never in one of those movies that made me a star.
I never made a film which fully satisfied me.
I still think that movies are amazing; I respect actors and directors.
In that sense, film is superior, but the difficulty is your lack of control as a writer.
After directing movies, I respect any director in this world, because making a movie as a director is tons and tons of work.
I never feel like there's any one point to the film, to anything, to any of the movies I've made.
It's nice to have proper film fans respecting and appreciating your work.
I haven't really tried to write a movie. It's tough to get into that mode.
