One person doesn't have to shoulder all the responsibility for why a film does or doesn't do well.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
In film work, you do the best you can under the given circumstances, but you don't have control. At least, I don't.
I prefer to believe it's my responsibility if a film of mine works or doesn't work.
If you are going to do a film properly you have to give yourself completely to it.
Whenever you do a film for the wrong reasons, it may or it may not pan out. Sometimes people do it because it is a good move or the right move. I don't know; maybe one day I will do a film for the wrong reasons, and it will work for me.
Most people don't really understand what it takes to get a film made, and the struggles .I think anyone who makes a film goes through their own set of struggles.
I think you have a responsibility to the people you're making movies with, and I take that very seriously. I don't want to let up and I don't want to let down.
Filmmaking is a business and at the bottom line people who don't make fiscally responsible decisions end up going into another line of work.
If there's anything about someone's life that's important enough to make a movie about it, I have to take responsibility to get all of it right. It's a huge responsibility.
As a producer you have creative control, and that's what is so exciting about it. At the end of the day, if you have made a film it's totally your responsibility, and if it works it's your responsibility and if it doesn't it's also your responsibility.
I feel like there's such a responsibility, when you make a film, to enlighten people, to make them think, to make them laugh, or even just to be entertaining.
