I can't make a choice to do a movie because people will go see it. People look at what a movie becomes and decide if they'll see it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
People go to see a film because it's a great story and it's visually exciting to watch.
People think that I have some idea about how I choose my films. I make sure that I am doing the kind of films that I want to watch. You hear so many stories, and one of them will stand out and connect to you somewhere.
If I get lucky and I can choose, I would always choose a really good story and screenplay, even if I don't know the director. If there's a good screenplay, there's a chance that something good is going to happen.
Films are all about decisions, and that's what I love.
When I choose a movie, I'll ask myself: 'Is this a movie I want to see?'
I always choose my movie because of a director and a story and a, a character.
I sometimes think it's better to go with a bad movie that is true to a certain point of view than to take something and make people try to like it when they're not supposed to.
To me, watching a movie is like going to an amusement park. My worst fear is making a film that people don't think is a good ride.
I prefer to make a film that people have a really intense reaction to than have a film that people feel ambivalent about.
I will always choose to work in a movie based on whether I would want to watch it - if I would be willing to spend money in a theatre on it. The script and the people you will work with come after that.
