John is a cottage industry in Baltimore and the city opens its doors for him whenever he is making a new film.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's up to the courage of the filmmakers to make art in cinema, not just business. John was rejected by studios, he borrowed money and did movies with his own money. You're either courageous or not. You have to find a way.
John le Carre's 'The Night Manager' is a relentlessly exhilarating thriller with profound emotional depths.
My dream is to be able to make something in Baltimore that's just there. Make a movie or make a show there. I only left because there wasn't any opportunity except being an extra in Barry Levinson or John Waters movies.
Johnny Colt is a character, and most people in Lynyrd Skynyrd are characters, so he fits in great with us. He's got an attitude, man, and I love it, and that's what we need.
John Chatterton is the kind of person who always seems to be up to some kind of incredible adventure.
When I made 'The Notebook,' the director, Nick Cassavetes, who is John's son, used to show me his father's movies.
I'm a wire-walker, but actually, I'm a moviemaker that hasn't done his first movie.
I was always such an incredible fan of John Woo, I just wanted to do this film with him.
I wanted to try and trace the genuine origins of 'Johnny' and how he so successfully staged this takeover of 'Michael Pennington.' 'Johnny' is a contradiction to who I am as a person. I'm not very good at confrontation, I have a tendency to internalise and to carry things around.
The Doors movie is a pack of lies. It did not make money. You want to make money in America? Tell the truth.
