So many plays with magic in them that would be a terrific invitation to an imaginative animation team.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think that all the talented filmmakers sort of share, I think, a sense of allowing magic to happen; of creating a stable and secure environment for performers to feel they can push to the end of their ability.
Making the ordinary potentially magical is what film should be all about.
Magic is the Special Olympics of entertainment.
Magic is like special effects live, and I love to perform, so it sounded like doing magic tricks were a good way to entertain people.
It seemed to me that you make magic real by making it a little prosaic, a little difficult and disappointing - never quite as glamorous as the other characters imagine.
So, when the special effects are at the service of the story and draw you into it, that is really the magic.
The real secret of magic lies in the performance.
That creates the magic, and that's the wonderment of the musical process and how precious that is.
Even though I make those movies, I find myself wishing that more of those magic moments could happen in real life.
Magic is really performing special effects live.
