And that's another reason to make this movie: We can put plays on film now, at a relatively small cost, and they will reach an audience they would never have reached otherwise.

There's no point in making films unless you intend to show us something special, otherwise just go out and watch a play.

There are a lot of things that come to bear on movies now that I don't think are good for movies. They're trying to appeal to the biggest demographic and, when they do that, you sometimes flatten out.

There's not a lot of good movies being made.

I can understand the validity of showing people the ugliness of the world, but I also think there is a place for movies to leave people with a sense of hope.

Movies cater to what the audiences want.

There are a lot of movies made for nobody.

I don't write plays for them to be turned into movies.

The way the films look will never entertain an audience alone. It has to be in the service of a good story with great characters.

I've found that if you just try to make the film you want, you'll find the right audience. If you try to please everyone, you're going to make really boring films.
