Writing and directing your own film, for me, has been the best experience of my life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Any film, or to me any creative endeavour, no matter who you're working with, is, in many cases, a wonderful experience.
I think I've had pretty good experiences for the most part with the people who have directed my screenplays.
Directing a film was something I was yearning to do. I always wanted to see if I had the capacity to be a good storyteller.
Writing, producing and directing, I must say, is incredibly satisfying and gratifying. I've never been happier.
Directing a film was something I always wanted to do, something that seemed an inevitability in my development as an actor.
I started writing screenplays myself and eventually directing.
I love the work that goes into making a movie and creating a different world. It is a wholesome experience.
Creatively, it's great, because when you write your own movies, you get to create whatever you want.
Just making a movie the way 'All is Lost' had to be made was a great experience, because it was structured differently than any other film I will make for the rest of my life.
Directing film is the hardest thing I have ever done.
