I can't do a film if I don't start with the writing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I haven't really tried to write a movie. It's tough to get into that mode.
I eventually want to do writing on all the films, but not necessarily to be the writer. Writing is a painful, painful thing; it really is.
I got a job as an assistant film editor, which lasted for a few years, but I found writing incredibly difficult, and I thought, 'How am I going to make a film if I can't write?' I didn't really comprehend that someone else would do that bit.
You don't want to be starting a film not knowing what you want to do.
I know I'd like to direct a film at some point, and maybe I'll write it.
It's hard writing screenplays.
I'm not saying I'm a writer, but I've been in movies for a long time, and I think I could write a script for a movie.
I don't want to make a film to make a film.
I want to write a film. I need to think of the right idea and focus on that; I love writing.
I don't actually sit down and write, but I just have a lot of different ideas about films and making movies.
