I mean, there are things in the book you could never do in a movie.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There's a saying in the movie industry that if your movie is about what you actually think it's about, you're in big trouble. I think it's the same with books.
Writers are so used to books being optioned and then the movie never happens.
You can't always go by the book, even in comedy.
When I see films made from books, I make a huge effort not to remember the book. It's important to see the film as a film.
It's the rare book that's able to transport you in a way that a movie does.
Movies can't ruin books. They can only ruin movies.
Once you know how to make a movie, you can't not make a movie.
It's such a complicated thing to put a movie together. The book world is so much simpler.
If I read a script and I like it, there's nothing that will stop me from trying to be in that movie.
The beauty of cinema is that it can do some things that novels just can't.
