I like movies about failing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Failure worries me; nobody wants to fail. There is a fear that one day, films will not come my way, or if someone doesn't watch your film, that is a worrying point. It is unpredictable in the industry.
For me, utter failure is to make a film that people pay their money to go see and they don't like.
I even get inspired by movies that aren't very good, because there's always something good in movies that are collectively thought of as a failure. There's good in everything, I find.
I have had unsuccessful films, but I learned a lot from those films. I give my failures as much importance as my success.
I feel like every time I take on a movie, it's important that the possibility of failure exists, and of the unknown, because it's a challenge to do something I haven't done before and something I have to try to work out.
I don't like failing at anything.
If I don't direct a movie at some point, I've failed personally.
I love failure. It's stuff that I'm thinking about all the time in my life, so it would make sense to me anyway to write about it.
So a failed movie is not going to ruin my career.
I'd hate to see any film I'm involved in fail, especially artistically but also business-wise.
