I've never directed, but it must be humbling.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I mean, if you're being directed very precisely by somebody who has admiration and who's really smart, it's great. If you're being told what to do by a nincompoop - and luckily that hasn't happened very often - it can be very frustrating.
Directing is really my favorite thing to do, but if I never directed again, I'd be okay if all the work I did was good.
Good, bad mediocre or whatever it is, if a director wants me in his movie, I take it as a compliment.
It's so funny when you're actually directing because things start popping that you don't expect to pop, and something that you think is going to pop, maybe doesn't quite have the impetus that you thought it might.
I've acted just to get to directing.
I have never directed. But I think I could. I have thought about it. I'm a bit long in the tooth to start.
I love to be directed. They can trust me and go.
I love to be directed, and I can glean something from almost anyone.
Whenever I've directed something, there's this feeling of demand and focus that I like.
I'd never directed before and this movie's too important to me to put in the hands of some guy who has never directed. Even if it's me.
