The fact is some people really love my work, some people not so much, but at the end of the day, I don't want anybody coming out of the movie thinking about me.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I want people to come see my films and enjoy them but at the end of the day you can't control what people think.
The folks who read my books are so passionate about each one of them that the people making my movies are more afraid of my readership than they are of me.
Usually when I am in a movie that is about to come out, if people don't love it, that is fine - I can handle it.
When you're making a movie, you don't think about the outcome. That's something I'm grateful for: whenever I go and do a new project, I never think about the outcome. It's always just about the work at hand. That's the fun part. The other part is always something I've had a struggle with, which is promoting the film. I know it's important.
I don't want to be doing movies that I don't want to do. They take so much out of you.
Some people will ruin a movie for you if they enthuse too much.
I always question if somebody else is going to love my films. I think that's what art is about - it's so individual.
I've discovered I can't make a film about people I dislike.
When you aren't doing too many films, people find other things to write about you.
When you're working on a movie you always hope that people will go for it and enjoy what you're doing.
