I have a stack of scripts that I've read - I'm in the lucky position where I get offered things - but I haven't wanted to direct many of them.

I've read some scripts, but I don't read as many books as I should.

I wish in my own mind I were more definite - that I was absolutely convinced I'd never direct someone else's script, but I keep reading scripts, because I might find something.

Good scripts are hard to find.

I never thought I was very good at developing material. I grew up at the BBC where they sent you scripts.

Personally, I read a lot of scripts.

I don't get that many scripts. Back in Australia, I've pretty much done my own shows and really no work outside of that. It's only now that I'm starting to read some Hollywood film scripts, and I've read some really great ones.

I read a lot of script. In my opinion, most of them aren't good or aren't about people.

I can now tell from the envelope whether or not it is a good script.
